Use of the "-v" option with the start-stop-daemon command, give us a
clue. It takes me a while before looking at the man page but at the end
I found the problem :p!

[code]
Shutting down the psad daemon:
No process in pidfile `/var/run/psad/psad.pid' found running; none killed.
[/code]

And one or two lines above we can see

[code]
Suppression de psad ...
[/code]

The mistake is in the pre-removal script psad.prerm that removes the pid
files from /var/run/psad/ before the daemon is stopped. That should be
done in the post-removal script.

I noticed another thing: The pid files are never removed by the
initscript. Then, even if psad is not running we can find them in
/var/run/psad.

Would you like me to open a new post to explain this more thoroughly ?

I have struggled with my initscript for fwknop. So if it can help:
