hi,
i'm using poppaswwd without similar problems on deatrat.my
/etc/xinetd.d/poppassd file looks like this:
service poppassd
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
server = /usr/bin/poppasswd
}
also
Add do /etc/services:
poppassd 106/tcp
Configure tcpd to refuse connection to poppassd from all hosts
but localhost. I have tcpd compiled with -DOPTIONS and my /etc/hosts.deny
entry looks like:
poppassd: nobody@localhost: allow
poppassd: ALL: deny
You may need to change 'nobody' to the user your httpd is running as.
It's also worth considering to block all incoming TCP packets to port
106 on your router.
Add to /etc/syslog.conf:
local4.err /var/log/poppassd
hth,
manohar
