Description

Removing the "-udp" suffix confuses other services. Let me clarify. Both udp and tcp services can and do have the same name. Lets
take "echo" as an example:
$ grep echo /etc/services
echo 7/tcp
echo 7/udp
Although /etc/xinetd.d/echo and /etc/xinetd.d/echo-udp are different file names
both MUST have "echo" on the "service" line (because there's no such service
called "echo-udp"
# ls -l /etc/xinetd.d/echo*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 288 May 3 13:01 echo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 343 May 3 13:00 echo-udp
# cat /etc/xinetd.d/echo
# default: off
# description: An echo server. This is the tcp \
# version.
service echo
{
type = INTERNAL
id = echo-stream
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
disable = no
}
# cat /etc/xinetd.d/echo-udp
# default: off
# description: An echo server. This is the udp \
# version.
# Removed -udp (bugzilla bug 38669)
service echo
{
type = INTERNAL UNLISTED
id = echo-dgram
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
user = root
wait = yes
disable = no
port = 7
}
# netstat -a |grep echo
tcp 0 0 *:echo *:* LISTEN
udp 0 0 *:echo *:*
I know that - the problems is handling it in ntsysv and chkconfig, which needs unique names for services: Note that I specify the port in an attempt at making xinetd run it with a different name. OK. Thanks for the comment. Let me just add that it sounds like ntsysv and chkconfig need to be fixed. Service names could be the same for both TCP and UDP and that this has long been standardized before ntsysv or chkconfig have existed. A fix is in xinetd-2.1.8.9pre15-1. |
