Marc,
I am aware that the rc.d script just wrap up the kill to the blood off
the user's fingers :)
When I said "I'm not aware of other Unices that use this convention (
kill SIGHUP /var/run/${procname}.pid )." I was focussing on the
convention of creating a file in /var/run/ which notes the pid in use
by the daemon.
Again, I might well be wrong in that assumption too. :)
