rpc.ttdbserver

[Nobody's Hero]

I have a k420 running devel PS app server. The last month, process 'rpc.ttdbserver' is constantly running at 100% forever. It never seems to release from grabbing an entire CPU. We rebooted the box last week. Same problem occurs. I dont see any errors in any logs. Is this a problem except for the loss of one of the CPU's that has this process? Any idea of a cause?

Robert,

I saw that after applying the Support Plus patch bundle, September 2001 release a while ago.

HP Security document HPSBUX0110-168 recommends that the following line in /etc/inetd.conf be commented out to fix a security hole. This should have no impact on Common Desktop Environment:
rpc xti tcp swait root /usr/dt/bin/rpc.ttdbserver 100083 1 /usr/dt/bin/rpc.ttdbserver

After you edit the above file, force inetd to reread the config file /etc/inetd.conf:

# /usr/sbin/inetd -c

If rpc.ttdbserver is still alive, you can manually kill it.

this is a known issue just disable the daemon via inetd.conf.
