[CentOS] CentOS6 xinetd failure
One thing I have noticed on CentOS6 is that rsync via xinetd never works after a reboot. It always takes an additional, post-reboot service xinetd restart to get it going. That has been the same for all revisions up to and including 6.5, and I've seen it on more than just machine. While I don't see such a message on other problem machines, the latest reboot gave me a clue: Dec 9 23:28:36 host xinetd[21131]: bind failed (Address already in use (errno = 98)). service = rsync Dec 9 23:28:36 host xinetd[21131]: Service rsync failed to start and is deactivated. Is there any way to debug this? I suspect it needs to be debugged during reboot since the service starts up fine later. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

In the rsync xinetd conf it says IPv6 here... JD ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

see http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2013-July/135847.html I have had the same problem and I will never understand, why this is unchanged up to now. Alternative: - erase nfs - change sequence number in /etc/rc3.d best regards Helmut Viele Grüße Helmut Drodofsky Internet XS Service GmbH Heßbrühlstraße 15 70565 Stuttgart Geschäftsführung Dr.-Ing.

Is there any way to debug this? I suspect it needs to be debugged during reboot since the service starts up fine later. Address already in use = check what is listening on port 873? In the rsync xinetd conf it says IPv6 here... service rsync { disable = no flags = IPv6 socket_type = stream wait= no user= root server = /usr/bin/rsync server_args = --daemon log_on_failure += USERID } All machines are, correctly, showing that xinetd is listening on 873. But this must not be the case for at least a period of time during system startup. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Excellent, thanks! Now I know how to work around it. I've seen this happening before, on CentOS5, when cups would sometimes not start. Upstream knows this problem very well or they wouldn't have introduced portreserve(1). Pretty hilarious they can't fix the actual problem. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
