I got a new machine (I'm typing on it now) up and running, but I need
the old one to work long enough ot port the various services over...
I think it is best to just move the new machine to the old IP, the old
machine to the new one's current IP and have one big down time while I
reconfigure rather than try to resurrect the old one.
I managed to kill the forking process (identd) by disabling it in
inetd.conf and HUP'ing inetd immediately after reboot.
The log entries (now that I can see them) repeat a message like:
in.inetd[####]: pthread_create(timeout_thread) failed: Resource
temperarily unavailable
(repeat ad nauseum)
Disabling identd fixed that, but named and ip forwarding isn't doing too
hot.
Well... time to get back tro work.....
