It doesn't help or I don't know how to use it :/
# start-stop-daemon --start -n httpd -m -p /var/lock/httpd.pid -- -c
/etc/bbhttpd.conf -h /www/pages/
start-stop-daemon: -S needs -x or -a
# start-stop-daemon --start -n httpd -m -p /var/lock/httpd.pid -x
/sbin/httpd -- -c /etc/bbhttpd.conf -h /www/pages/
# cat /var/lock/httpd.pid
4610
# ps | grep http
4612 root 104 S /sbin/httpd -c /etc/bbhttpd.conf -h /www/pages/
# start-stop-daemon --start -n httpd -m -p /var/lock/httpd.pid -a
/sbin/httpd -- -c /etc/bbhttpd.conf -h /www/pages/
# cat /var/lock/httpd.pid
4618
# ps | grep http
4620 root 104 S /sbin/httpd -c /etc/bbhttpd.conf -h /www/pages/
