[BusyBox] busybox v1.0 tail acting funny

[Brian T]

I have a program running in the backgroup called jbminit, which is started by busybox (init) at boot time.  Whan running "tail -f /var/log/messages" I get this, and cannot ctrl-c out of it:

Nov 19 16:58:09 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:10 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:10 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:10 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:10 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:10 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:11 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:12 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:13 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.
Nov 19 16:58:14 testhost user.notice jbminit: Received SIGINT.

hitting ctrl-c just prints out more of these errors.

Just a plain "tail /var/log/messages" works fine.

Not sure if this is a problem with my jbminit program, or busybox init.

Comments?
