resmsh/telnet issue

Malps — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 09:37:07 GMT

Hi

I am trying to Boot a Client through Ignite. But Ignite can’t connect to the client & couldn’t start the ignition process. It suggests booting it manually but even that doesn’t work.

(/opt/ignite/bin/bootsys -wv -R B.11.11 pandora: 192.168.137.222 2>/var/tmp/baaa28530)

When I check the Error Log File “/var/tmp/baaa28530”

Fatal error on "pandora": (remsh error: rcmd_af: connect: 192.168.137.222: Connection refused)

I can ssh & ping the system but couldn’t Telnet to that system

# telnet 192.168.137.222
Trying...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

# telnet 0
Trying...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

I checked /etc/inetd.conf on the client but that has following entries (not hashed out)

login stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/lbin/rlogind rlogind

shell stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/lbin/remshd remshd

exec stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/lbin/rexecd rexecd

Then I checked $HOME/.rhosts file (logged in as root) which has following entry:

+ +

Also checked for /var/adm/inetd.sec & that has following entry

dtspc allow 127.0.0.1 loopback pandora

Checked /etc/services

exec 512/tcp # remote execution, passwd required

login 513/tcp # remote login
who 513/udp whod # remote who and uptime

shell 514/tcp cmd # remote command, no passwd used

& Finally Checked /var/admsyslogsyslog.log

I was trying to install an IPv6 Bundle on that client before reinstalling it.

But that installation failed while it was building kernel (at 24%)

The same bundle installed fine on my other 11.11 machine which was installed from the same depot server.

#netstat –in

Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
* 0 192.168.136.0 192.168.137.222 0 0 4278190080 0 0
0 0.0.48.0 0.0.255.255 9523848 0 0 0 0

What else can be checked?

I would appreciate if you all can help me to boot this client from ignite.

Also please advise on why the netstat output looks like this?

Do you have an entry for telnet in /etc/inetd.conf? Looks like this

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/telnetd telnetd

If you add it to inetd.conf be sure to run "inetd -c" to have the conf file re-read.

Are those the only entries you have in inetd.conf? If so then you are missing one for telnetd. You could make a copy of you existing inetd.conf file and then copy the /usr/newconfig/etc/inetd.conf file to /etc/inetd.conf. Run "inetd -c" and try your telnet, then your ignite.

Hi,

You must have to re-read the /etc/inetd.conf file after any editing on this by inetd -c .

Thanks All of you!!!

The Issue is resolved now.

It was an issue with a corrupt IPv6 bundle.

That has caused the tcp/ip parameter values to change & hence the netstat -in o/p.

I have installled a new bundle now & things seem fine.

Thanks Again.
