Re: identd problems
Hi all,
I recently found out that neither talk nor identd were working and
after reloading inetd the following errors appeared in syslog.
inetd[9663]: ntalk/udp: unknown service
inetd[9663]: ident/tcp: unknown service
Now, I purged and reinstalled pidentd and talkd but no change.
In inetd.conf the relevant lines look like:
talk dgram udp wait nobody.tty /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.talkd
ntalk dgram udp wait nobody.tty /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.ntalkd
ident stream tcp wait identd /usr/sbin/identd identd
And these are written in /etc/services too.
I checked these with a working sparc potato installation
and an i386 woody installation.
I found no differences...
Suspecting a corrupt inetd I compiled netbase and reinstalled. No
change...
I'm a bit lost as to where to look from now.
Any pointers ?
TIA
