distcc install on xinetd
Result:
Installation of distcc on a system running xinetd, results in reference to
non existint documentation concerning correct configuration of distcc
after installtion.
Expected Result:
Distcc should add xinetd entry if needed, or refer to existing
documentation,which should have a sample entry for distcc install on
xinetd.
Reproduction:
install xinetd, install distcc.
Packages:
xinetd 2.3.4-1.2
distcc 2.11.2-1
I believe this is a sample entry for distcc,
BUT I AM NOT SURE.
BUT I AM NOT SURE.
I want someone to look at my sample xinetd entry for distcc, _and I will
bugreport this_.
service distcc
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = distccd
server = /usr/bin/distccd
server_args = --nice=1
}
Nag notification on installation:
If you are indeed using xinetd, you will have to convert the
above into /etc/xinetd.conf format, and add it manually. See
/usr/share/doc/xinetd/README.Debian for more information.
This tells not enough, as I am lazy, and I just want to look at a sample
entry.
Documentation on update xinetd.conf
Using itox
The following command will output the appropriate xinetd.conf entry for
this service, so you can add the output to xinetd.conf yourself:
echo "line from /etc/inetd.conf" | itox
