But rsyncd is still down. paging Theo! ;)

<quasi> someone had been mucking about with rsync and managed to fubar the
inetd manifests in the process

<quasi> jmason: I've disabled the rsync service for now - but someone needs to
look at what mess they've created when trying to make an rsync server on
sa.zones


I guess it's back to the drawing board on the rsync-from-inetd thing...

It's in rc3.d, you can just run the S99rsync* script (I forget if it's
"rsync" or "rsyncd").  I already logged in and did that today, btw.

Yes, this came from the last time we had problems most likely.
Specifically, rsync used to be a daemon, then it got shoved into inetd
and fubared the daemon.  So the last time the box went down I had to go
in with a machete and hack the stupid thing to work.

Is there a reason you/someone is trying to get rsync running from inetd?  It's
perfectly happy as a daemon.  The last time I had to go through this thing, it
was running from inetd but not actually functioning which led to my swearing
at Solaris 10 and then hacking the thing to work.
