Regards, Mike Klinke ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike, Thanks very much. I read the bug report and have added the flag. I am also having problems with the gnome interface so this problem may be affected gnome as well. Looks like there is another FC1 user in the bug report that has a the same problem. I'll watch mine to see if the flag fixes things and then make a report to bugzilla myself. Thanks again for your help!!! Greg ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Everyone, I think I need some additional help. I filled a bugzilla report that was very helpful. http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119918 Jay Fenlason suggested that I get xinetd-2.3.13-1.src.rpm from the rawhide download section of FC. I could not get the rawhide link to connect, but did find the rpm on: http://spirit.bentel.sk/opennalinux/1.0/UPDATES/SRPMS/ I was able to compile 2.3.13 without difficulty using the following command line options: ./configure --with-libwrap --with-loadavg The config.log file contains the following entries: configure:7901: checking whether to use libwrap configure:7913: result: yes configure:7915: checking for request_init in -lwrap configure:7946: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lwrap -lm -lcrypt >&5 configure:7586: checking whether to compile in loadavg configure:7598: result: yes The size of the new xinetd was much larger: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 878195 Apr 17 16:15 xinetd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 157792 Apr 17 13:21 xinetd.2.3.12 The problem I have is that when I activate xinetd and look at the entry in the messages log, it appears that the libwrap and loadavg options were installed.

Apr 17 16:27:59 Pt xinetd[25050]: 25050 {init_services} no services. Exiting... I did not discover any erros in the compile process and have the following questions: 1. Is xinetd-2.3.13-1 compatible with FC1 or should it be reserved for FC1.9? 2. I was surpirsed by the difference in file size of .12 and .13 and wonder if I did something wrong. 3. The log files indiate both options were installed but the message log files indicate contrary. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks, Greg Ennis
