I observed some weird behavior in 'inetd' where in some cases, it was not starting a process when an RPC call is made for that process (prog/ver).
Not sure if this is the correct mailing list for this, if not - could anyone point me in the right direction.
I'm using Linux-2.6.8, inetd-2.0-285 (couldn't find source code for this version). I looked at inetd.c from netkit-base-0.18-pre1 and looks like the 'nsock' count becomes negative in some cases - so when a service is added and inetd HUPd - it calls sig_wait() instead of select() - even though it starts listening on that port.
Any ideas, pointers? TIA - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
