- Subject: Problems with xinetd
Hi All,
I'm having some problems getting xinetd to work through cygwin on my
Windows XP machine. Sysvinit seems to be calling xinetd correctly and
the service seems to be running when I run 'ps -a'. However, when I
attempt to telnet or ftp from the same machine locally (or non-locally
for that matter) I automatically get disconnected. The following appears
in servicelog:
03/4/11 at 10:53:04: START: telnet pid=3056 from=127.0.0.1
03/4/11 at 11:04:33: START: ftp pid=3988 from=127.0.0.1
03/4/11 at 11:04:33: EXIT: ftp pid=3988 duration=0(sec)
I've checked my computer and there do not appear to be any firewalls
running or anything that would otherwise disable the service. My xinetd
configs are as follows:
-- xinetd.conf
defaults
{
instances = 60
log_type = FILE /var/log/servicelog
log_on_success = HOST PID
log_on_failure = HOST
cps = 25 30
}
includedir /etc/xinetd.d
--
-- xinetd.d/telnet
service telnet
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
user = SYSTEM
disable = no
}
--
When I check the Windows event log for error messages (of which there
are some) I get the following text:
xinetd : PID 3652 : setuid failed: Permission denied (errno = 13).
Please advise as to what is stopping these services from running.
TIA...
