I'm trying to run xinetd as a service. In the MS Event viewer, I get the following error messages: Error parsing attribute server - DISABLING SERVICE This message is generated at Windows boot time. When I try to start the service by hand, I get the following message: starting service 'init' failed: execv: 1, Operation not permitted. Starting xinetd by hand using '/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd start' works, but produces the following error: touch: creating '/var/log/subsys/xinetd': Permission denied However, the service runs then. It seems to stay attached to the console though. What is going wrong here? What can I do to start xinetd as as service? Thanks for your help in advance.
