inetd logging

Jay Cantwell — Thu, 26 Jun 2003 10:22:42 GMT

I have enabled logging in the netdaemons file for inetd. I am receiving the attached sample in syslog. Could someone tell me why this
"registrar" is happening?? How can I set up logging so that I do not get message every 2 minutes.....

thanks...Jay

Place a comment in front of the following in your /etc/inetd.conf file and reread with 'inetd -c':

registrar stream tcp nowait root /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/registrar /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/registrar

Here's some other possibly unused network services:

printer stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/rlpdaemon rlpdaemon -i
daytime stream tcp nowait root internal
daytime dgram udp nowait root internal
time stream tcp nowait root internal
time dgram udp nowait root internal
echo stream tcp nowait root internal
echo dgram udp nowait root internal
discard stream tcp nowait root internal
discard dgram udp nowait root internal
chargen stream tcp nowait root internal
chargen dgram udp nowait root internal

This is another of the many daemons we turn off in /etc/inetd.conf.

At the bottom of inetd.conf, comment out the line

registrar stream tcp nowait root /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/registrar /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/registrar

and do an inetd -c to reconfigure. That should stop the messages.

Hi,
If I remember well this registrar is a service for diagnostic deamons. Each diag deamon registred itself to the diag subsystem (each diag* processes). If I remember well, it is a known problem with a diagnostic version.
Try cstm command, and say which diagnostic version it is ? For myself it is
Version A.38.00And i don't have this problem any more.

Cheers.

ps: upgrading diagnostic can be do onlien without rebooting.

The other solution is to remove this service from /etc/inetd.conf, but it can avoid diagnostic to run well.
