Re: [newbie] Reload Xinetd

[Ethan]

that's strange. I am running LM 8.1 and issued the command as root in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ driectory. typing xinetd by itself gets no response. And I believe that xinetd is the default - for without it, ftp and other services cannot run...

man xinetd shows that sending the signal SIGUSR2 will cause a hard reconfiguration... but how do you do that. I tried kill -SIGUSR2 xinetd but it does not work. pls advise. thank you.

pls advise. thank you.

I don't know /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart works fine here. are u justentering xinetd restart or the whole thing /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetdrestart. Is xinetd currently running? if not its /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetdstart. And you must be root.
