Description aparnakhatri 2001-04-23 08:29:34 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)


Enabled telnet and ftp services , so that they would start from xinetd. 
Error in log indicates "id not unique" for both ftp and telnet. Line 
number is the last line in the files /etc/xinetd.d/telnet and w*ftp

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1.install Redhat 7.1
2.edit files in /etc/xinetd.d to set disable=no, or use chkconfig or 
ntsysv to enable services for telnet and ftp
3.service xinetd reload
	

Actual Results:  telnet and ftp daemons did not start. Could not telnet to 
the machine from anywhere.

Expected Results:  telnetd and ftpd should have started.

ping works fine. ssh works fine too.

Can you list your current config files? This seems to work fine for me.

Thanks,
