Hi.

There should be at most one reactivate process running, or pending via
desync, at any one time.  reactivate writes its process ID into
/var/athena/reactivate.pid, quitting immediately when it finds an
existing pid there.

Can you run another ps command, and grep for "reactivate" this time?
Also, if /var/athena/reactivate.pid exists, can you do "ls -l" and
"cat" on it?

Thanks,
Bob
