[philip is hungry]

I am trying to use "sd_watchdog_enabled".  If I run my service without forking, the sd_watchdog_enabled function works as expected:

Jan 18 15:05:29 thinkpad systemd[1]: Starting WaitonlyServer...
Jan 18 15:05:30 thinkpad waitonly[11172]: PID before fork  = 11172
Jan 18 15:05:30 thinkpad waitonly[11172]: Return from lockme = 0
Jan 18 15:05:30 thinkpad waitonly[11172]: PID to compare with watchdog_pid: 11172
Jan 18 15:05:30 thinkpad waitonly[11172]: Return from watchdog = 1

however if i run the forkme function (to put process in the background) it behaves as follows:

Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: Return from forkme = 11228
Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: Return from lockme = 0
Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: PID to compare with watchdog_pid: 11228
Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: systemd watchdog not enabled - not sending watchdog keepalives!
Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: systemd watchdog pid = -1905553534
Jan 18 15:06:25 thinkpad waitonly[11228]: Return from watchdog = 0

where am I going wrong? any help with this is greatly appreciated.

thanks!
