[Voyage-linux] Watchdog not working as expected

[Andrew Niemantsverdriet]

What do I need to get watchdog working on voyage-0.2? I followed this:
http://wiki.voyage.hk/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=wrap_watchdog

Modified the /etc/watchdog.conf to look like this:
voyage:~# cat /etc/watchdog.conf
ping            = 192.168.1.1   # host that must be reachable at all times
interface       = eth0          # interface that must receive network traffic
realtime        = yes           # schedule the watchdog in real-time
priority        = 1             # high-priority

So when I go to test the watchdog by saying:
voyage:~# /etc/init.d/watchdog stop

I get this:
Stopping watchdog daemon: start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 1567:
No such process

So the watchdog is not running. But the wrap is not rebooting. What is the
problem?
