try upgrading to the xinetd errata and see if that fixes it.

Comment 2 Gary Fidler 2002-11-05 16:09:28 UTC
How would I do this?  RHN says my system is up-to-date.  RPM shows xinetd-2.3.7-2.

Comment 3 Alexander Larsson 2002-11-06 08:15:46 UTC
Hmmm. Strange. I was sure there had been an xinetd errata.
There is a bug with xinetd that fails to start fam if you've enabled
tcp-wrappers. If this is that problem you should have gotten some log messages
about not being able to get peer address.

Other possible causes: You disabled one of portmap, fam, xinetd. You've
firewalled off one of the above apps for local access.


Comment 4 Alexander Larsson 2003-08-12 12:36:10 UTC
Have you verified this is not one of the possible causes listed above?

Comment 5 Daniel Veillard 2004-11-30 15:39:38 UTC
This is more than one year old and I didn't got any error report
about this since, I think this can safely be closed.
