Well, seems that upstart is not only culprit here. start on runlevel 2 start on runlevel 3 start on runlevel 4 start on runlevel 5
stop on runlevel 0 stop on runlevel 1 stop on runlevel 6 respawn exec /bin/su root -c '/usr/bin/socat TCP4-LISTEN:9100,su=nobody,fork TCP4:192.168.11.4:9100,bind=192.168.11.19' works. Anything I have tried using /usr/bin/ssh as the exec param fails or does not behave as expected (as it used to be with /etc/inittab) with "ssh -f -N ...", it kind of starts, but it ends up with 'respawning too fast', even though the connection is established and status service_name reports "(stop) waiting" -- respawning too fast https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173288 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
