Start/Stop Daemon is a simple open-source script for managing daemon processes via command line. It uses SIGTERM to initiate shutdown and a SIGKILL to terminate any processes still running after 3 seconds.
The script is easy to use and lightweight on system resources. It allows me to stop my daemon processes in a controlled manner by first notifying them to shutdown with a SIGTERM signal. If the process is still alive after 3 seconds, the Start/Stop Daemon sends a SIGKILL signal to stop the process effectively.
With this software, I can rest assured that my daemon processes are stopped gracefully and without any data loss. I highly recommend this to any system administrator looking for a reliable way to manage their daemon processes.
Overall, the Start/Stop Daemon is a great tool that provides an efficient way to control daemon processes from the command line without any hassle. Try it out for free and see the difference it can make in your system administration workflow.
