First, verify that it works: [root@paradox slinky]# service xinetd status xinetd (pid 483) is running... > Every time I try to start a service , example are echo or telnet, which > is associated with it I get the following msg "you must enable xinetd > to start this service. Probably a misleading message. You must enable each of those services _via_ xinetd. > I tried starting / stopping xinetd to no avail. > I've also tried chkconfig xinetd start, chkconfig xinetd stop, > chkconfig telnet start and /etc/init.d/xinetd restart to no avail. Wrong commands. ;) 'chkconfig telnet on' does all you need, provided xinetd is running as tested above. If xinetd isn't running, 'service xinetd start' should work. What is the result of 'chkconfig xinetd --list' You should get something like: # chkconfig xinetd --list xinetd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off If it says 'off' for all runlevels, 'chkconfig xinted on' will fix it so it starts at boot time. 'man chkconfig' for details. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+ML02n/07WoAb/SsRAgiRAJ48KxgY5mmEhbxbQrhgVgFbXq2wgACgk5yx wLBfzxhKEzBUIKk9wFjXUVQ= =+v+k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
