I recall being bitten by this scenario years ago; whereby, if for some
reason INND dies and you have rc.news and innwatch running, you can
create a real snafu by trying to bring it back into a sane startup.
I've long forgotten how delicate this is - and I ran into this a couple
of times tonight. Once where "ctlinnd" froze up when I tried to restart
all.
Anyone some docs about how to gracefully kill off dead processes and
restart this subsystem without resorting to drastic measures like rebooting.
