Hi

We have several systems that monitor vsftpd to make sure its up and ok, but keep getting
alerts like this

DateHostServiceActionDescription
08 Jun 10:34:36 +0100britishland-ash.telensa.comvsftpdAlertprocess PID changed from 28483 to 3826
08 Jun 10:34:36 +0100britishland-ash.telensa.comvsftpdAlertprocess PPID changed from 3826 to 1


from mmonit (currently trialing). Does anyone have any suggestion how we can avoid this?



(BTW: the problem appears to be that the parent spawns a child, which spawns a child, which confuses monit)
