[OpenWrt-Devel] how to stop a inittab service without reboot

[Claudio Thomas]

what would be the difference when starting such a "service" as normal
init.d-script or procd-init-script, instead of as entry in inittab?
As far as I remember the procd-init-script has also a "respawn" option,
so that procd should also restart the service in case it stops...

Has inittab a higher prio or is inittab simply the oldest way of
starting a service?

Thanks,
Claudio
