Hi, I am using this script to take the cvs backup regularly on daily basis from the cvs server. This script is configured through cron to run at 2 AM and the logs are directed to a seperate file in var/log .
/etc/bkupcvs.sh ----------------------------------- #!/bin/sh /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd stop rm -f /usr/cvsbkup.tar.gz cd /home tar -czvf /usr/cvsbkup.tar.gz cvs /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd start mount -t smbfs -o username=Administrator,password=xxxxxx //ntserver/cvsbkup /NTcvsbkup -rw cp /usr/cvsbkup.tar.gz /NTcvsbkup/. umount /NTcvsbkup ------------------------------------------------ Cron file : 0 2 * * * /etc/backcvs.sh >> /var/log/bkupcvs.log 2>&1 The problem is everyday the script is unable to stop xinetd. I the log file it says : - /var/log/bkupcvs.log " Stopping xinetd: [FAILED] cvs/ cvs/trial,v ........................... ......................... < Output of the tar of cvs folder > ........................ ............. Starting xinetd: [ OK ] Unknown parameter encountered: "ssl CA certFile" Ignoring unknown parameter "ssl CA certFile" " There is no error when the script tries to start xinetd towrads the end of the script. Xinetd is always on ( running ) before the script is being executed as the users are able to access the server. When I stop xinetd by using the same command in the script there is no problem. /VAR/LOG/messages " Feb 26 01:59:59 hydlynx xinetd[23088]: Exiting...
