Re: Regarding "Bad line received" message
I would guess that the server on 133.217.201.72 is trying to remsh,rexec to your redhat server.
R-command as disabled by default so xinetd daemon is bonucing it. I have also seen this line when someone is running nessus against a server so be sure that the ip address 133.217.201.72 is a valid customer ip and grep -i /var/log/messages for "nessus". If its there raise the issue with customer.

Re: Regarding "Bad line received" message
Hello,
Thank you for reply and suggestion.
The '133.217.201.72' is Oracle RAC machine.
And according to messages I attached, rsh is enable and
there are many rsh session for service.
And I could not find "nessus" in messages file.
So I guess there is another reason for the message.
[ADDITIONAL INFORMATION]
According to the customer, the message has appeared several times in past time.
# cat messages* | grep Bad

Is there any idea ?
Thank you for advice.
