You mentioned that the 2 servers with the problem were "hardened". Was SELinux enabled on them? Also, I'd check your log files to see what (if any) messages you're getting during boot. Also, when you say that the "omni process" is listening on TCP:5555, do you mean that you actually see an "omni" process in the ps output, or you see that there is something listening on tcp port 5555 in the netstat -a output? I'd also check your /etc/services file to make sure those are the same on all the systems as well as your sysctl settings. And just out of paranoia, check the /etc/security/ files to make sure those are the same on all the servers as well.

For 3 of them, each time after reboot the Dataprotector "omni" process would listen on Tcp 5555 (netstat -a confirms this) However for 2 of them, DP "omni" is not auto-started up after each reboot & I have to issue "service xinetd restart" to start it up. Can see that in all 5 servers, /etc/xinetd.d/omni is present & the contents are the same. I've also created a startup script in /etc/rc3.d/S99startomni & in /etc/rc5.d/S99startomni which contain just one line : service xinetd restart but still after each reboot, it won't start up the omni service What's wrong? The 2 servers with problem was hardened by an external vendor so not exactly sure what's been done Thanks Roger -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
