Pb with inetd and ftp/tcp
I'm using a debian systems for 3 years or so with no problem at all. But recently I discovered a rather stranger behavior with inetd and particularly with ftp Imagine that an evil person want to crash your machine sending a lot of non-authorized ftp requests like this (shell is zsh) $ while `true` $ do $ lftp -u foo,bar -e ls target-host & $ done after a few loops, the inetd daemon detects a problem and stops the ftp server. --> I found this message in the /var/log/daemon.log of the target-host (in fact localhost :-)) Jun 19 14:34:52 joebar inetd[22750]: ftp/tcp server failing (looping), service terminated So as I understand it, anyone who has a tcp access to a machine can send a huge amount of invalid ftp request and therefore crashes (or stops) the ftp server !!! Is it a normal behavior ?

In fact only those following the #!/bin/interpretername convention (see man run-parts) To get back to your pb, I don't actually know what 'wn' stands for, so you need to look at /etc/cron.daily/wn or the program it is linked to. -- Jean-Michel Rouet (thesard Dpt ITI) | Tel : +33 298 001 730 ENST de Bretagne| email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] 29285 Brest Cedex | France | http://www-iti.enst-bretagne.fr/~rouet/ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
