Advisory ID:       RHBA-2000:090-02
Issue date:        2000-10-19
Updated on:        2000-10-19

1. Topic:

xinetd as shipped with Red Hat Linux 7 does not handle the linuxconf web
interface correctly. Internal services (echo, daytime, time, and chargen)
have been added for easier configuration. In addition, an xinetd-specific
way of doing access control has been fixed.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i386

3. Problem description:

xinetd as shipped with Red Hat Linux 7 does not handle the linuxconf web
interface correctly. Internal services (echo, daytime, time, and chargen)
have been added for easier configuration with chkconfig or ntsysv. In
addition, an xinetd-specific way of doing access control (only_from) has
been fixed.

4. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filename]

where filename is the name of the RPM.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

18686 - /etc/hosts causes denial of localhost-only services
18901 - xinetd Time service broken
18221 - linuxconf-web does not work
