Hi,
I saw this at work recently while trying to start gkrellmd on a test
server. I double checked #/usr/local/etc/gkrellmd.conf for errors and
found none. I tried the startup script again
#/usr/local/etc/rc.d/gkrellmd.sh start and got the same error. I tried
from the command line with #gkrellmd and no error. I guess the error is
in gkrellmd.sh . I will see on Monday what happens on startup.
Cheers,
Ryan Merrick
