I'm investigating a problem we're having telnet'ing into a few boards in
our system (we're getting Connection refused). We can successfully
telnet to one of the three boards in our system but not the other two.
inetd seems to be running on all three boards (it's in the pidin output)
but the state of inetd on the two boards we're having problems with is
SIGSUSPEND (the state of inetd on the working board is SIGWAITINFO). Can
anyone explain what it means to have inetd in SIGSUSPEND state how it
can get this way? Is there a way to prod inetd out of this state?

 

While searching for information on this issue I found mention on running
inetd with the -d switch to get debug information. Unfortunately, our
two problem boards are booting off compact flash and I'm trying to
figure out how inetd is getting started at all (there's not an
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file in the compact flash file system).

 

Thanks.
