RE: Has ANYONE got telnet via xinetd working on 2000 *SERVER*?? ( or 2003)
Glad you got it going :)
Funny but i didnt get an xinetd installed in /rtc/rc.d/init.d/
or i wouldnt have done copied and edited sshd.
I didnt need to run iu-config.sh as it got run as postinstall by inetutils
for me.

*SERVER*??
( or 2003)
BOY - WAS THAT PAINFUL. I did *finally* get it all
working - but
it sure seems like there's
got to be an easier way.
Some lessons learned:
1.If you were set up for inetd *before* you attempt to
use xinetd, be
sure to set the CYGWIN environment
variable.
CYGWIN='binmode tty ntsec'
I had the registry modified instead for inetd and it
didn't occur to
me till after about 12
hours of trying everything else that this could be the culprit.
2.I found that copying the sshd to xinetd was not necessary. The
default one that is put down with the
xinetd install seems to work just fine.
3.Be sure to run iu-config in addition to
everything else to
set up the /etc environment if cygwin is
truly a fresh install.
4.Make sure that /var/log is universally writable. If
the xinetd
service doesn't start when doing
net start init
then stop init service, remove /var/log/servicelog and make sure
/var/log
directory is writeable for all. Start init service. (Thanks to
Sergey Okhapkin).
Telnet/Ftp via Xinetd INSTALL - SETUP
Instructions ###
1.Do a clean install (or REINSTALL) of inetutils,
xinetd, sysvinit,
chkconfig, and initscripts
Note: inetd will NOT be running as a service, but the
xinetd does need
inetutils installed.
Beyond simply putting the pieces on your harddisk
via setup.exe,
DO NOT
follow any of the instructions regarding *inetd*.
2.Make sure your CYGWIN enviroment variable is set:
CYGWIN='binmode tty ntsec'
3.run /bin/iu-configto set up the /etc folder.
4.run /usr/bin/init-config, NOT overwriting any
config files, just
install init as a service
5.cd /etc/rc.d/init.d then /usr/sbin/chkconfig --add xinetd
6.net stop init then net start init
7.telnet localhost
THANKS VINCE!!
##
###
had time to try this today, works fine.
steps were,
1) clean install included inetutils, xinetd, sysvinit ,chkconfig and
initscripts (and vim but whatever editor you like ;)
2) run /usr/bin/init-config, NOT overwriting any config
files, just to
install init as a service.
3) copy /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd to /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd and
edit to make
appropriate to xinetd (available on request)
4) cd /etc/rc.d/init.d then /usr/sbin/chkconfig --add xinetd
5) net stop init net then net start init
6)
$ telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...

( or 2003)
WOW! Thanks dude! You're my hero! YES - I would *GREATLY*
appreciate:
edit to make appropriate to xinetd (available on request)
So I am hereby *requesting* it :-)
as requested (find attached)
its probably not a tidy as could be as i just ripped out the
ssh specific
bits,
did
%s/sshd/xinetd/g
%s/SSHD/XINETD/g
so remembering i did actualy have access to a redhat box
using linux
box
using xinetd, find attached also, xinet.rh which is the
redhat one with
linux specific stuff cut out (checking for root user etc.)
havent tested
that one but it should work.
hope this is enough to get yours working.
On a side note, i originaly tried to use just xinetd as a service but
realised there is no option to stop it forking to background
so while it
worked, you couldnt stop it without killing it from a command
line/task
manager :(.
It still *seems* like I did everything here (and more than
once I might
add) - and that
I *should* have got it working. Of course I will start fresh
and follow
your instructions
*to the letter* and then backstep to see why I wasn't able to get it
working on my own.
The one thing of course that I would never have thought to do
would be to
copy
and modify sshd to xinetd
