Francois,
your entries for /etc/rpc and /etc/services look OK, your entry for
/etc/inetd.conf if not OK.....the underlined bits are wrong...
"acedb/1 stream rpc/tcp wait user.group
----------
/usr/local/bin/ rpc.acedbd /home/Database/acedb/ 20000114 1200:1200:0"
---------------
user.group This should be the name of the userid used to start the server,
---------- e.g. if you wanted the server started with your permissions then
you should put your userid here instead of user.group
/usr/local/bin/ This should be the _fullpath_ to the server executable, so if
--------------- you have put rpc.acedbd in /usr/local/bin, then this field
should be /usr/local/bin/rpc.acedbd. Otherwise inetd will not
find the executable.
Try making these changes, if that still doesn't work then let me know.
cheers Ed
