Not looking for a list of reasons why this isn't a good idea, just simply: is anybody out there successfully running apache httpd 1.3.12 or later under SuSE linux 6.4 or later inetd/tcdp?
Being a troglodyte, I had to try it; I couldn't get it to work (nobody home on port 80), and didn't spot anything in various logs. The things I set were:
/etc/rc.config: START_HTTPD=no
httpd.config: ServerType inetd
/etc/inetd.conf: httpd stream tcp nowait root <path to tcpd> (continued line) <path to apache> -f <path to httpd.conf> (continued line) <standard modules>
(I also tried wwwrun instead of user root, and without tcpd.)
If you use 'httpd' in /etc/inetd.conf, check that you have a matching port definition in /etc/services. Also (checking for the "d'oh" factor) inetd has had a chance to re-read the config file, hasn't it? Richard. ----- Richard P. Scott, Lincoln, England. richard@fortress.demon.co.uk
