For troubleshooting purposes, you can manually start and stop the Linux sensor daemon.

Procedure

  1. To restart the service, open a terminal and issue this command:
    sudo service cbdaemon restart
  2. To start the service, open a terminal and issue this command:
    sudo service cbdaemon start
  3. To stop the service, open a terminal and issue this command:
    sudo service cbdaemon stop
    Note: If the sensor crashes, you might need to delete the following file to eliminate an error when trying to start the daemon: /var/run/cbdaemon.pid

    For 6.1.x the file is /var/lib/pid and for 6.2.x, the file is /var/run/cbdaemon.pid.
