Hi folks,
I stumbled over some strange behavior of inetd in connection with
a NIS served services map:
I'm backing up 45 Alphas and several Linux boxes with amanda, and
the amanda ports are defined in the NIS services map.
This is fine with 42 of our Alphas, but the other three lately
refuse to listen to those ports (10080/udp, 10082/tcp, 10083/tcp)
Now after I finally inserted the ports into the local services
file of these 3 hosts they listen again.
/etc/svc.conf says : services=local,yp on all machines.
Getting stranger even: a couple of weeks ago ALL our alphas where
able to use the NIS services map...., and the map still exists on
ALL machines. And I did not change anything in the meantime.
The same is true for the pop3 service (port 110/tcp) which for
most hosts is served by NIS, but only for the same three hosts
fails to connect.
There is no special security level involved.
Could anyone explain this behaviour to me ?
TIA
Tschüß,
Dieter
