Disabling network services

[mehul_3]

Hi,

How can I disable the following network services:
echo, time, nfs, snmp,mysql,http.

Oracle database is installed in HP-UX server using single threaded.
Is there any harm to disable these service.
From above echo, time, nfs is important.But what about the rest which is unimportant and needs to disable.

Hi mehul

Very easy, just disable the service as you want in the services file, location:

/etc/services
After disable, restart the inet service:
#inetd -c

That all!

Hi,

You can disable a lot more services like that.
Just go thru the /etc/inetd.conf file and comment out the ones you don't need.

And restart the inetd process.

kill -HUP
