Hi Iñaki,
i think its a bit of a problem that the init script can block somehow, as this
causes delays for the system start. But on the other hand, kamailio is not
really desktop software..
But if we could allow the init script to block for some time, what about this
(IMHO much simpler) approach:
* kamailio gets started as usual
* init script sleeps for some time (e.g. 5-10 seconds, configurable)
* init script checks if the process is really running (process list, FIFO,
SIP OPTIONS..)
* init script returns the appropriate return code
Not sure if you already considered this.

With a select
it is possible to do a blocking read from some time. I
strongly suggest more than 4-5 seconds, I think 30s should be a minimum.
ok, but IMHO 30 seconds is too much for a init script. However this is
a corner case.
