ldminfod port information

[Barry Cisna]

Hello All,

I am trying to troubleshoot a problem,that has arisen.
Could someone on list here check and see if,,when you do the following
in a terminal on the ltsp5 server :

telnet localhost 9571

You get a connection and the connection stays open?

When I try and do the above command I get a connect but immediately
disconnected. I would think I should be able to stay connected?
This is the ldminfod port number.
I have never tried this before,so i do not know if this is expected
behaviour?

Thank You,
Barry

I see this:
-------------------
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

-------------------
Then the connection closes. Based on my review of the man page and other related
documentation, I think the close of the connection is expected. I've never looked
into this before, though.

reb,

Thank You for responding. Your paste looks identical to mine. As You
said. I now I am guessing the close is to be expected. It appears the
ldminfod port is opened via an xientd script located in a sub dir of
X11?
Now I know this server appears to be functioning correctly for this part
anyway.

Take Care,
Barry
