Description Jonathan de Boyne Pollard 2016-02-13 09:15:04 UTC

Because it is missing the requisite mechanism, it performs the same action (creating a file in /var) all of the time, including at system shutdown ...

$ /etc/rc.d/msgs stop
/etc/rc.d/msgs: cannot create /var/msgs/bounds: Permission denied
$

... and even when simply querying status

$ /etc/rc.d/msgs status
/etc/rc.d/msgs: cannot create /var/msgs/bounds: Permission denied
$
$ /etc/rc.d/msgs rcvar
/etc/rc.d/msgs: cannot create /var/msgs/bounds: Permission denied
$
