rexecd

Hi everyone,

I am trying to configure start rexecd for X but am either being real dumb or just not getting it?

initially I have commmented out rexecd entry from /etc/inetd.conf and run refresh -s inetd.

I know rexecd offers some security risks however I need to start it to use X.

any ideas ill be a great help

Thanks

When you say commented out, does your entry look like this?

#exec         stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/rexecd   rexecd

If it does, then just unhash (uncomment) the entry and restart or refresh inetd.
