I have a daemon that I want the inetd to start up automatically.
The daemon was created using rpcgen. My problem is that when
I put an entry in the inetd.conf file like this:
testd/1 stream rpc/tcp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.testd rpc.testd
With a corresponding entry in /etc/rpc:
testd 100099
I get the following error message:
inetd[124]: testd/rpc/tcp: unknown service
However, if I change the entry in inetd.conf to:
100099/1 stream rpc/tcp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.testd rpc.testd
everything works fine. What am I doing wrong?
I am running on a Sun workstation running SunOS 4.1.1.
Here is the .x file I run rpcgen on:
program TESTPROG {
version TESTVERS {
int STARTTEST(int) = 1;
int STOPTEST(int) = 2;
} = 1;
} = 100099;
I use rpcgen as follows:
rpcgen -I test.x
What I normally do is send a HUP signal to inetd so that it re-reads the
inetd.conf file. I have also tried rebooting. No luck. Any help
would be appreciated.
