Subject: Neither xinetd nor inetd seem to work... but differently???
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

a) xinetd:

I ran /usr/bin/xinetd.conf, answered yes to all the questions, then 
edited /etc/xinetd.d/* and made sure all the services are enabled...
I then run /etc/rc.d/xinted start and it says OK.

I then try 'telnet  localhost', and get this:
[99]==> telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
[100]==>


b) inetd:

I then shut down xinetd, and run /usr/sbin/inetd
Now I am getting:

[103]==> telnet 127.0.0.1
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

c) inetd -d:

Finally, I try inetd -d, hoping to be able to see what's wrong in the 
debug output...
This time, I am able to connect, and get prompted for a password, BUT, 
whatever username/password I type in (the windoze login/password, domain 
login/password, cygwin login/password, that I changed with passwd), I 
get "Login Incorrect".
I even tried putting .rhosts with '+ +' into my home directory, and 
doing rlogin - it still asks for the password, and doesn't accept any 
input...

Any ideas what is going on here?

Thanks!

Dima
