tcpd hemorrhage



A colleague did a clean install of woody yesterday. Everything seemed pretty normal, but he could not get uw-imap to start.

It would not start because tcp wrappers seems to be going crazy (uw-imapd starts via inetd and the line /usb/bin/tcpd /usr/sbin/imapd)

He has many MB of log entries of the form:

Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: connect from unknown
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: warning: can't get client address: Socket operation on non-socket
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: connect from unknown
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: warning: can't get client address: Socket operation on non-socket
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: connect from unknown

Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: connect from unknown

Problem with a stock kernel?  Missing package?

Any ideas appreciated.

Thanks

Tom
