Re-configuring inetd via inetd -c lets appear the messages "Rereading configuration" and "Configuration complete" in the syslog file of one server but not of the other. Why?
The configuration of both server is quite similar:
1) syslog.conf: Not commented lines are the same on both servers.
2) Start scripts of syslogd and inetd are the same on both servers.
3) Binaries of syslogd and inetd are the same on both servers.
4) Installed patches dealing with syslogd and inetd are the same on both servers.
All seems to be the same, but I wonder what causes the different behaviour. Of course, this seems not to be a serious problem, but is inetd on one server really re-configured after typing inetd -c?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
/etc/inetd.conf has the "-l" option added
/etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons has been turned on for logging also with "-l"
Just a quick thought,
Rita

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
/etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons: The variable INETD_ARGS is empty.
You probably mean inetd -l, inetd is not started with that option on both servers. As described in inetd(1M), -l gives log information on internet connections, not on inetd configurations.
Any other ideas?

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
please compare the "/etc/syslogd.conf" files from
both systems - I guess there are some differences...
HTH,

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
Instead of visually inspecting the two server's configuration files and scripts files, copy one set of them (as a different name) to the other server and 'diff' the two files.

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
First of all like James recommended, do a diff on the syslog.conf of both the machines rather than a visual comparision.
Was the syslog.conf modified on the machine where you are having a problem? If it was modified, was syslogd bounced?
Also on the problem machine, does it ever show up in the syslog? or it shows up once and on further execution of inetd -c, it doesn't?
You might want to look at the arguments syslogd is started with?
-Hope it helps

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
The only difference of both syslog.conf is one commented line. diff does not tell anything else.
Ramesh:
An inetd line showed up on the problem node an Aug 2, the last time:
Aug 2 13:48:27 front inetd[904]: Rereading configuration
I.e. this line shows up one time, and on further execution of inetd -c it doesn't. Where do you point to?
syslog.conf was modified, but I tried again the old version of syslog.conf (taken from a backup) that was valid at Aug 2 and, again, I do not get inetd lines in the syslog (after re-reading syslogd its configuration file).
syslogd is started with argument -D on both servers.

SolutionOn the offending server, try changing inetd.conf to add or delete a service. Then see if the "inetd -c" does indeed perform this change. At least you'll prove it's working (or not).
How are you checking the binaries are the same? Are you running a cksum or "ls -l"? I assume there isn't another inetd being found somewhere else in your PATH.
Regards, Robin.

Re: inetd does not log into syslog
Deleting services and re-configuring inetd does not show up any message in the syslog. In addition, the "deleted" services are still active.
Time to call the HP support. Thank you for your assistance.
