pidfile incomplete

Issue #70 invalid
Maximilian Bosch created an issue

Hi,

I'm on gentoo, using sshguard in combination with iptables, thus after starting sshguard, the following processes are spawned.

18769 sshguard
18770 sshguard
18771 sshg-parser
18773 sshg-blocker
18774 sshguard
18776 sshg-fw-iptable

Unfortunately the pid file (-i /var/run/sshguard.pid) is only populated partially, which makes the life for start-stop-daemon unnecessary hard imho.

$ cat /var/run/sshguard.pid
18773

    Killing sshg-blocker should result in the whole thing coming down; you should only have to kill this one process in the PID file. Have you tried that?
