When I start xinetd, I get this in the logs: Apr 24 08:19:55 wintermute xinetd: xinetd startup succeeded Apr 24 08:19:55 wintermute xinetd[3980]: bind failed (Address already in use (errno = 98)). service = rsync Apr 24 08:19:55 wintermute xinetd[3980]: Service rsync failed to start and is deactivated.

The rsync package hasn't changed since April 7th and xinetd hasn't since March 1st so this may be kernel related.

Actual Results: xinetd complains that the rsync address is already is use Expected Results: it starts normally Additional info:
This has since gone away. I don't know if it was a kernel thing or what but it doesn't happen with the 35x kernels.
