Description mal 2000-08-11 02:16:51 UTC
xinetd (fixed version, which ignores specific extensions)
should be checked on the list of extensions to ignore.

Current logrotate ignores .rpmorig,  .rpmsave ,v and ~
(it does not ignore .rpmnew)
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15971

Current crontabs (in /usr/bin/run-parts )
ignores ~ .rpmsave .rpmorig .rpmnew .swp 
(it does not ignore ,v)
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15968

So they ignore different set of extensions.
Check that xinetd ignores ALL these extensions
rpmorig  .rpmsave .rpmnew .swp ,v and ~

Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2000-08-11 16:58:12 UTC
It ignores filenames starting with ".", which would include .foobar.swp files.
The rest are already in, ,v excepted.
