Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

XInetd & /etc/services Issue: msg#00123

XInetd & /etc/services Issue |
Hi Folks,
I have pulled my hair out on this issue for a week or so now and wondered
if anyone else knows of any issues regarding this.
I am trying to configure xinetd to use a 3rd party daemon.
The entries are as follows in /etc/xinetd.d/platypusd
service platypusd
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
port = 5124
protocol = tcp
server = /private/platypusd/platypusd
log_on_failure += USERID
}
(please note I know that stating port & protocol should make the lookup to
/etc/services not needed but it still calls...)
Now in /etc/services I create the port & protocol entries:-
platypusd 5124/tcp # Platypus user utility daemon
When I restart xinetd however I get this error:
Oct 19 15:32:25 venus xinetd[7520]: Exiting...
Oct 19 15:32:25 venus xinetd: xinetd shutdown succeeded
Oct 19 15:32:25 venus xinetd: xinetd startup succeeded
Oct 19 15:32:25 venus xinetd[13568]: service/protocol combination not in
/etc/services: platypusd/tcp
Oct 19 15:32:26 venus xinetd[13568]: xinetd Version 2.3.12 started with
libwrap loadavg options compiled in.
Oct 19 15:32:26 venus xinetd[13568]: Started working: 4 available services
I have tried every which way I can think of to try and get xinetd to read
the correct lines from /etc/services but it just does not want to jive. I
thought I had a corrupt xinetd but I tried from another FC1 install on a
side server and it did the same thing too! From what little I have played
with xinetd it has always been a walk in the park. Does anyone else have
any idea what might be going on here?
If you could cc me in on replies at: jim-AT-linux-sp.com I would grateful.
Regards,
Jim
