search for: startsrc

All: I am running on an AIX 5.3 platform and I am looking to see if anybody has a script similar to this (see below) that will work under AIX. My goal is, on boot up I want to have samba started automatically. Can somebody let me what I have to do (on AIX) for this to happen. #!/bin/sh # # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb - starts and stops SMB services. # # The following

...RES Detail Data SYMPTOM CODE 256 SOFTWARE ERROR CODE -9020 ERROR CODE 0 DETECTING MODULE 'srchevn.c'@line:'343' FAILING MODULE sshd --------------------------------------------------------------------------- But i am able to restart the sshd manually using startsrc. I notice that the problem is because /etc/rc.tcpip is using startsrc -s sshd -a "0|1" . I tried the same command manually and an error ( as mentioned above) was logged. I hope this could be a know problem for you. Please let me know the solution for the same.. Your Help would be greatly...

Hi, If anyone has managed to get sshd to run as a subsystem in the System Resource Controller under AIX 4.3.3 (a la mkssys), then please let me know how you did it... I can mkssys and startsrc it, but it dies immediately, leaving a child sshd running with another PID than startsrc reported, and lssrc reports sshd inoperative. Is sshd a process that should stay in foreground, not forking? Or does it fork every time to service a connection (excuse my ignorance)? Douglas Manton, I read you...

Because of user access growth, the number of processes associated with IMAP has increased and I thought to change some of the configured parms. dovecot -n yields: # 1.1.14: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: AIX 1 005A928C4C00 listen: *:143 ssl_listen: *:993 disable_plaintext_auth: no verbose_ssl: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login

...; ? Personally, I use the AIX system resource controller to manage sshd. This has the advantage of automatically restarting it if it ever falls over. The following command sets it up: mkssys -s sshd -u 0 -p /usr/local/sbin/sshd -G tcpip -R -S -n 15 -f 9 Now sshd can be controlled with: startsrc -s sshd stopsrc -s sshd Trying to stop the daemon any other way (e.g. kill -9) means it gets automatically restarted by SRC. You kick it off on startup in /etc/rc.tcpip in the same way as inetd, etc... Hope this is useful! -------------------------------------------------------- Doug Manto...

I'm new to using openSSH on AIX and want to know how others are launching and maintaing sshd. I see where sshd has a -i option for use with inetd, but I am thinking about adding the AIX SRC APIs so that I can use the commands: lssrc, startsrc and stopsrc to maintain the daemon. -- Denise M.

I hope someone can help. I've installed 2.9p2 on a number of AIX boxes and it works great. The problem is that a HUGE >700 number of defunct processes get generated by sshd. Did I do something wrong ? Any suggestions ? Please email chuck at fiu.edu as I don't subscribe to the list. TIA, Chuck -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

OK, not exactly a samba issue but maybe the Ubuntu maintainer reads this list and can provide some input. Problem: Ubuntu doesn't daemonize smbd. System: Ubuntu Lucid where a recent update moved many startup scripts into the "upstart" system. Now smbd is started and runs as "smbd -F". If I edit the upstart script (/etc/init/smbd.conf) so that it runs as "smbd

My purpose to have a samba server is to share files across UNIX and NT servers. I want to be able to mount NT directories/files over to UNIX system and vice versa. I have RS/6000 machine running AIX 4.2 (will be upgraded to 4.3 soon) After trying a few times, i have finally installed samba in AIX machine. I have installed an older version 2.0.0 as only this version support AIX 4.2 (if i am wrong,
