[ale] hald

[Sean Kilpatrick]

My box was doing some strange things the other day so I ran
[ps aux] to see what was running. The only thing I could find 
that seemed odd was "hald", running as root.

Never heard of it; ran a "find" and it turned up in /usr/sbin.
this way:
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 205448 Dec  1  2004 hald

Anybody know what this might be or what it might be doing?
"man" and "info" turn up nothing and it's not listed in any of the
reference books I have on the shelf.

Sean
