Hi all,
I'm still trying to get xinetd to run from cygwin. I installed everything according to the instructions. However, init does not make any visible attempt to start xinetd. I can start it by hand using the init script. telinit does not do anything, and starting the Windows-service does not do anything either.
What is going wrong? How can I trace what init is doing? Additionally, there seems to be something strange with the user-mapping between Windows and Cygwin. The Windows service starts as user "NetworkService" which does not seem to have an entry in /etc/passwd.
Best Regards, Gordon.
1. Install inetutils package. 2. Run iu-config. 3. Install sysvinit package. 4. Run init-config (install init as service, make sure it starts OK) 5. Install initscripts package. 6. Install xinetd and chkconfig packages.
Try:
/sbin/telinit 1
then,
/sbin/telinit 3
and you should have xinetd up and running, check event log for sanity
(I get "permission denied" errors for /dev/console when changing run
levels).
