How to Fix "echo: error invalid argument" for sshd init service on LFS.

Why does it happen ?

Honestly, I don't really know.

Prerequisites

  • Editor text, I use vim.
  • Sshd init service file, It usually exist at /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd.

Steps

  1. Open the sshd init service file !
  2. Find line contains echo '-16' > /proc/${pid}/oom_score_adj !
  3. Change the line into echo -n '-16' > /proc/${pid}/oom_score_adj !
  4. Try run the init service !
