cannot start rpc.rstat?

[huaxiang]

1、 vi the /etc/inetd.conf, and /usr/sbin/inetd -c
2、 from /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log,shows /rpc.rstatd started, below is a part from syslog.log:
rpc.rstatd/udp: Added service, server /usr/lib/netsvc/rstat/rpc.rstatd
3、 but , #ps -ef|grep rstat ,didn't find rpc.rstat
4、whatis the problem ?

Do you see rpc.rstat in the output of ps -ef?

Try
ps -ef | grep -i rpc

You have to restart nfs services. on the server like nfs.server, nfs.client.

inetd -c
will register the process after you editted the inetd.config. you shouldn't need to do anything else.

HOWEVER, you won't see it "running" until after the first request.

so, on the box you "enabled" it on, try running:

rup

(substitute the correct name). If its working, you should get an "uptime" report, if not, it will say something along the lines of "process not registered".

You should not need to kill the inet daemon, stop / start it, or reboot.

If it doesn't start, you have something wrong in inetd.conf
