I was setting up rlpdaemon and when I check the formating for the inetd.sec file the manual says: "If inetd.sec is not found in the /usr/adm directory, the security is only that implemented by the servers. " So why is it in my /etc directory ? I can't check all of the manuals because I don't have a full set at home and I didn't call the response center for the same reason, and I won;t be at the office till next year. (Why can't HP put ALL of the reference pages in the REFERENCE manual? I really don't care what division wrote the manual.) jim sadler 206-234-9009 email uunet!bcstec!jsadler|root | hplabs!hpubvwa!b-mrda!jim

(You didn't mention what operating system you're using, let's assume it's HP-UX 6.5 on the HP9000 series 300) "inetd.sec" *really* goes into "/usr/adm", no doubt at all!! On my system there's a "inetd.conf" in "/etc" (which is *fully* correct), no "inetd.sec". ^^^^ Besides, be warned that both "/usr/adm" and "/etc/inetd.conf" are CDF's in a cluster environment !!!!!

Once upon a time, inetd.sec was in /etc. At some release, I don't know which, it moved to /usr/adm. Seemed kinda strange to me, too. wunder

" So why is it in my >/etc directory ? The inetd.sec file belongs in /usr/adm. I don't know why you found it in /etc.

I took a look at a 300 running 6.5 and it wasn't in /etc/ or /usr/adm/. It was in /etc/newconfig and the README said to put it in the /usr/adm/ directory. After that I looked in the /etc/newconfig/ on the 800 and the file is there, but no README. I still wonder how it got to /etc/. > "inetd.sec" *really* goes into "/usr/adm", no doubt at all!!
