thx for reply.
This script is really basic here there's the section I was talking about:
so at the end if RC is equal to zero means that all return codes were equal to the expected ones.
One pratical example that doesn't work is the command:
Quote:
service syslog restart
if an unauthorized user try to execute that command I got back the message:
Quote:
Shutting down kernel logger: /etc/init.d/functions: line 141: /var/run/klogd.pid: Permission denied
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/klogd.pid': Permission denied [FAILED]
Shutting down system logger: /etc/init.d/functions: line 141: /var/run/syslogd.pid: Permission denied
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/syslogd.pid': Permission denied[FAILED]
rm: cannot remove `/var/lock/subsys/syslog': Permission denied
Starting system logger: /etc/init.d/functions: line 141: /var/run/syslogd.pid: Permission denied
And the script stop its execution. To get the prompt back I have to type Ctrl-C.
The problem for me is that I would like simply to get back the return code to comprare with the expected one.

syslog
SYSLOG(8) System Logging SYSLOG(8)NAME
syslog-ng, syslogd
DESCRIPTION
There are different syslog daemon implementations supported as the system's syslog service, currently syslogd, syslog-ng and rsyslogd
The first installed daemon activates itself for the syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2, it is rsyslogd, before it was syslog-ng.
But this depends on the software selection during the installation.
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is specified in the
SYSLOG_DAEMON variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
The yast2 sysconfig module provides a comfortable way to switch to another installed daemon and restart the service.
The /etc/init.d/syslog init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
