I wonder if just changing killproc to just kill -hup
Would do the trick?

I do not understand why when I use kill -hup pid why the /var/lock/subsys/icecast file is left behind.
I have to manually remove it.

the /var/lock/subsys/... files are handled by the init scripts, not by icecast directly so sending HUP to icecast will not cause icecast to add/remove those files. The init scripts themselves will need to remove those subsys files.

Oh, yhis could mean some packages (from base packages) are not installed on your server.

killproc is a function. If you look at initscript, you'll ses taht finctions is incuded by initscript, then used. Thi sis standard RedHat, Fedora & CentOS (which is in fact a RHEL without proprietary software).
