Dear all, I've found a problem in xinetd 2.1.8.8p1 as SUSE is using. It didn't work, for me that is. After i have installed xinetd 2.1.8.8p3 everything was fine. When i took a look at web page of xinetd http://www.synack.net/xinetd/ . I found the warning that you can see below. Can the rpm package please be upgraded? Regards, Joop Boonen. Warning: xinetd releases prior to 2.1.8.8p3 and 2.1.8.9pre6 have a bug in the access control mechanism. If you use a hostname to control access to a service ( localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 ), xinetd will allow any connection from hosts that cannot be reverse looked up. Please upgrade to the latest version.
