Mar 14, 2020 · How does inetd transfer control to the service, Below is my understanding. inetd listens on every port mentioned in /etc/inetd.conf; If a client make a request to one of the port that inetd listens then inetd transfers control of that request to a service by spinning it as a child process by looking /etc/inetd.conf; It is acts as multiplexer.

Feb 14, 2019 · Thanks. I actually downloaded inetdutils-inetd package fro Debian 10 for easy conformance with the 'netperf' utility, whose manual documents an inetd entry, as it was initially a project based on HP-UX. Worked seamlessly (except I still have to manually start the service :-) But that's just laziness. –

I created /etc/inetd.conf and added the line. rsync stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/rsync rsyncd --daemon Then I had to send a HUP signal to inetd. But with ps -A I didn't see inetd running. So I added the line . inetd=YES to rc.conf.local, which looks now like this: ntpd_flags= inetd=YES When I enter inetd at the CLI everything works fine.

Feb 14, 2019 · inetd can make several programs with stdin input and stdout output work like programs with input and output from and to sockets, and monitor their listening sockets simultaneously. Is there a simpler program than inetd which just works for a single program: make a single program with stdin input and stdout output work like a program with input ...

It's almost certainly xinetd since regular inetd is older than dirt but you can check the RPM database: [root@xxx01 ~]# rpm -qa xinetd xinetd-2.3.14-39.el6_4.x86_64 [root@xxx01 ~]# rpm -qa inetd [root@xxx01 ~]# For your commands you can probably just start the xinetd service to get the commands to work (since one isn't running it looks like).

Oct 28, 2014 · Almost every unix system comes with an inetd implementation. Traditionally, “little” services such as echo, finger, ftp, etc. have used inetd, while “big” services such as httpd and NFS and helpers as well as ssh haven't. Use your distribution's default inetd implementation unless you need more than the basic service.

Feb 29, 2016 · I have a CentOS 7 system which uses systemd, and I want to start a tftp server. I'm confused about the right way to do this. I've seen some posts that say install xinetd and launch it from there ...
