I may be running, but it doesn't appear to have the proper ports open. If /etc/inetd.conf contains the proper lines, then it's possible someone messed up that file, restarted or HUPped inetd, and then repaired the file. The command: pfiles `pgrep inetd` ....will list what ports inetd has open. Easiest thing to try is to try "pkill -1 inetd" to HUP inetd and see if it opens the proper ports. How long has inetd been running? What's the date when you grep for its process? -- Brandon Hume - hume -> BOFH.Ca, http://WWW.BOFH.Ca/ |
