inetd.conf file

Yogesh Agarwal — Wed, 06 Mar 2002 18:02:51 GMT

In inetd.conf file I find the following line,

appconn stream tcp nowait root /opt/hpwebsuite/hpwebadm/lbin/appconn appconn

I did not find anything when I tried man -k appconn. Can anyone help me in understanding what appconn stands for and what application uses this service.

Hi,

Looks like the line has been added by hp web jetadmin software installed on your system.

Try doing a "man appconn" and see if it returns something. you can also look into the hp web jetadmin reference manuals for more info.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply, there are no man pages for appconn. We do not have any printers connected or configured on the system. How can we find more details about appconn and what it does and how to find if we have web jetadmin running on our machine.

If I'm not mistaken hpwebsuite is actually the Netscape Enterprise server installation. Check to confirm this ..
# ps -ef|grep websuite
There also should be a startup file in /sbin/init.d that starts up the service. The "appconn" service is added during the installation I believe. Have you check /opt/hpwebsuite for documentation ?

Hi,

I think hp web jetadmin is a swinstall package, so if you have hp webjetadmin installed on your system, you should be able to see it in the swlist output. Run "swlist" and see if you have hp web jetadmin installed on your system.

Also look for a docs or man directory under /opt/hpwebsuite/hpwebadm

Hope this helps.

Hi Yogesh,

I think 'appconn' stands for 'Append and Connect'.

This might be a service added along with a webserver installation ( Netscape ?) with HP websuite. Have a look at the specific sites for more relevent information about this.

See if there is man directory in /opt/hpwebsuite/hpwebadm/ if so then you can use nroff -man "manfile" | more to view the man page for appconn. I would also install lsof and see what port this service is running on and what files it has open.

Hi,

SK and Shiju might be right. See if you have netscape,

you can try this,

swlist -l file |grep appconn

Hope this helps.

Thanks everyone for the information, indeed Netscape server is installed on this machine.
