Package: xinetd
Version: 1:2.3.14-7
Severity: normal
Hi.
I found it very strange that xinetd wouldn't start on my machine (btw, it's the
most important problem to be fixed).
So I tried and do what was done by /etc/init.d/xinetd start, and added a -d
option, and then it worked.
So :
/usr/sbin/xinetd -d -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid -stayalive -inetd_compat
-inetd_ipv6
will work OK (it stays running, and invoked services are launched),
whereas :
/usr/sbin/xinetd -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid -stayalive -inetd_compat
-inetd_ipv6
gives :
Oct 11 16:26:23 hortense xinetd[10044]: bad address [file=/etc/xinetd.conf]
[line=12]
Oct 11 16:26:23 hortense xinetd[10044]: A fatal error was encountered while
parsing the default section. xinetd will exit.
Oct 11 16:26:23 hortense xinetd[10044]: Exiting...
My /etc/xinetd.conf contains :
# Simple configuration file for xinetd
#
# Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/
defaults
{
# Please note that you need a log_type line to be able to use log_on_success
# and log_on_failure. The default is the following :
# log_type = SYSLOG daemon info
interface = eth1
}
includedir /etc/xinetd.d
so line 12 is about interface eth1... which is up in both cases :-/
Thanks in advance if you have an idea of what's wrong with it.
Best regards,
