Hi All,
I'm trying to set up inetd to run on a box that I'm working on over here
and I was wondering if anyone had any advice.
I've gotten telnetd to run on the box and I'd now like to have inetd
spawn telnetd when there's a connection.
I've installed inetd in /usr/sbin/inetd and have created
/etc/inetd.conf, /etc/services, /etc/protocols, and /etc/nsswitch.conf
but I can't get it to work.
When I try to telnet into the box I get the following output:
dixon at rowling:~$ telnet 172.16.1.159
Trying 172.16.1.159...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
I start telnetd on the host with the following command:
# /usr/sbin/inetd -d
ADD : discard proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=root.(null)
builtin=10014530 server=internal
ADD : discard proto=udp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=root.(null)
builtin=10014540 server=internal
ADD : daytime proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=root.(null)
builtin=10014570 server=internal
ADD : time proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=root.(null)
builtin=10014550 server=internal
ADD : telnet proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=root.root
builtin=0 server=/usr/sbin/telnetd
ADD : smtp proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40, user.group=mail.(null)
builtin=0 server=/usr/sbin/exim
what I don't see is the:
someone wants telnet
accept, ctrl 3
1876 execl /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
that you'd expect.
Any ideas on what's going on?
Thanks,
Andy
