Dear All,

We are running Samba 3.0.28a under Solaris 8. Everything is fine so far except 
logins trough telnet or directly on console (login). I know telnet is unsafe 
and we should not use it but some old software needs the ability to use 
telnet/rsh/rlogin etc. the problem that occurs is that after a few minutes the 
telnet session is dropped. The same for a login session. That only happens when 
we are using pam_winbind.so.1 in /etc/pam.conf. I posted this question a few 
weeks ago and no one really knew a solution to this problem. I know found out 
what could be the reason. I installed openssh and now when I login using ssh 
instead of telnet i don't lose the connection. The only difference is that 
openssh is not run through inetd.

Are there any known issues when a server (telnet/login) is run through inetd?
