I'm in the process of creating a custom bsp and I'm trying to install telnetd. I've added inetd to the start scipt and 
updated the inetd.conf file to point to where telnetd is in the build. The hardware design is based upon an lite5200B 
platform. 

I'm using QNX 6.4.0.

I am not seeing any output in the syslog when I start inetd with the -d option. So I'm sort of stumped since I've 
included all the libraries and binaries that I've found mentioned in the documentation. Any thoughts? 

TIA

Dave

Re: inetd not starting

Have you added the /etc/inetd.conf file and enabled telnet in the file?

Re: inetd not starting

Yes, I have updated the inet.conf file and the services file for the telnet. I think part of my issue is I don't have 
any visibility into what error is acturally happening. With the -d option on the inetd invocation, I would have expected
 to see some sort of debug info in syslog but it is clear of any inet issues.

Re: inetd not starting

Here's what I have in my build file:

/proc/boot/inetd.conf = {
ftp     stream  tcp nowait  root  /proc/boot/ftpd          in.ftpd -l
telnet  stream  tcp nowait  root  /proc/boot/telnetd       in.telnetd
shell   stream  tcp nowait  root  /proc/boot/rshd          in.rshd
login   stream  tcp nowait  root  /proc/boot/rlogind       in.rlogind
}

/etc/services = {
ftp             21/tcp
telnet          23/tcp
login           513/tcp
shell           514/tcp         cmd             # no passwords used
}

/etc/passwd = {
root::0:0:Superuser:/root:/bin/sh
}

Re: inetd not starting

That is effectively what I have  in my system. I am wondeing if there is a layout issue and that when inetd is started, 
it can't find something and then aborts without putting something in the log. Is there some hard coded paths in some of 
the files binaries?

Re: inetd not starting

No, there are no hard coded paths. Do you have login on your build file? You
might also need /etc/config/ttys.

Re: inetd not starting

I didn't have the login but even adding that, it didn't change. I'm going to have to do some more research in the 
documentation to make sure that there isn't a library missing.

RE: inetd not starting

What happens if you start it by hand?

Re: RE: inetd not starting

When I try to start it by hand, all I get is a prompt and I don't see the process started. It almost makes me wonder if 
there is something it is dependent upon that is not in my build.

Re: RE: inetd not starting

The issue seems to have been solved, I found that for some reason I picked up a ^M in the file at the end of a line. 
Found it when I brought the file up under system via vi.
