using Netcat as a wrapper on solaris
2002-08-08 11:36:52
Hello,
In an effort to secure our servers, we do not run inetd at all, instead
using tcpserver as a wrapper for our TCP services. Since amandad is a
UDP based service, netcat is the option of choice, having it exec
amandad upon connection(run through daemontools). This works well on a
linux box, but my first solaris box I started on is giving me trouble. I
am running SunOS 5.8 and have the newest stable amanda and netcat. I
tested netcat w/ bash and it exec'd the shell perfectly through the UDP
connection. Is there a way to test amandad to make sure it is
functioning at all? It exits as soon as anything is sent to it through
netcat.
Thanks for the help,
