not able to telnet to port 13782

[laiju.c.babu]

Hi Team,

I am not able to telnet to port 13782. This port details is already given to /etc/serviccs and /etc/inetd.conf

This port is using for the netbackup.  It was working still yesterday and we didnt change anything in the server. Can i do any thing other than the reboot of the server

FYI  please find the below  outputs from /etc/services and inetd.conf

     [19]> grep -i 13782 /etc/services
bpcd    13782/tcp       bpcd

     [21]> grep -i bpcd /etc/inetd.conf
bpcd    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd bpcd

Could you please help me on this

Regards

Laiju

Hi Laiju,

seems you need to release the port  13782

pls give me the below o/p

netstat -an | grep -i 13782

lsof -i 13782

see what is the PID?

Try to kill that PID,  kill -9 pID

check the port status again in netstat -an

Try and let's know.

Hi  Laiju,

One more... you can  comment out the telnet service from inetd.conf   the refresh inetd

kill -HUP inetd

try to redeclare the entry in /etc/services if needed.

waiting for your reply.

Hi Sree

Thanks for the help

But none of the service is using that port

     [1]> netstat -an | grep -i 13782
xxxxxx:[opsroot]/u01/ltd/opsroot

This server is a DB server so can i do the second option online

Hi,

Issue is resolved, i forgot to check the basic thing... inetd daemon was not working ,,,  Started the daemon and now its working
