RWALLD SERVICES..

[Sandip Samanta]

Hi Admin,

How I can configure rwalld services ???

I have added one entry in /etc/services file. The entries is below..

rwalld 1530/tcp rwalld

I have added another entry in /etc/inetd.conf file also. The entries is below.
rwall stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/lbin/rwalld -log /var/adm/syslog/rwalld.log

Pls let me know what is the actuall process to run rwalld daemon .

My Server is N class and OS is HP-UX 11

Regards.

Sandip

uncomment out the line in your /etc/inetd.conf

rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/lib/netsvc/rwall/rpc.rwalld 100008 1 rpc.rwalld

then re-read/restart the inetd deamon with

inetd -c

I do not think you have to make any changes to /etc/services
do a man rwalld

Sandip:

Do:

# /usr/sbin/inetd -c

See man 1M inetd for more details.

Hi Kofi,

I have changed /etc/inetd.conf file according to your advise. The entry was there, I just uncomment it and after that I have stopped inetd & restared it. But it did not make any difference..

According to /etc/inetd.conf portmap should be run but in HPUX 11 it has came as rpcbind which is running.. Pls let me know what I should do now..

Sandip:

Make sure rpcbind is running. portmap is the former name for rpcbind, otherwise there is no real difference in usage/functionality.

rpcinfo is showing that walld is running..

Thanks again
