I'm having trouble tracing the source of this problem, has anyone else
noticed it? I have fam and libfam0 packages installed as they are
needed by a number of kde packages. The default configuration for
the xinetd.d/fam is used, and I get page after page of this in my
log files:
Jul 13 13:13:06 visigoth xinetd[901]: warning: can't get client address: Transport
endpoint is not connected

Jul 13 13:13:06 visigoth xinetd[2097]: Deactivating service sgi_fam due to excessive
incoming connections. Restarting in 30 seconds.
Jul 13 13:13:37 visigoth xinetd[2097]: Activating service sgi_fam
There will be groups of this, with about 50 lines of warning/libwrap pairs, then the
notice that xinetd is stopping the sgi_fam service. There is often a delay of several
hours before the next occurance, but sometimes, it starts as soon as the fam service
is restarted by xinetd. I am not able to find any correlation. The first occurrence
of this was on 04 JUL 2002.
