Hello all, I have a legacy application that I have running on a couple of RHEL AS 4.5 servers that requires telnet connections. We are currently in the process of fixing this requirement, but I digress. This weekend we rolled out a new server with this application and soon after users started hitting it this morning telnetd started dropping new connections as soon as they were made. By all accounts, existing telnet sessions and ssh were unaffected. Example: $ telnet localhost Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. This can be fixed by simply restarting xinetd, but it's kind of annoying. I haven't been able to find a pattern yet as to what triggers this, either. I've checked iptables and tcp wrappers, but neither looked to be the culprit. /var/log/messages looks clean, too. Any thoughts on either how to resolve this or get more information?
