xinetd and bitlbee

mucknert · 2007-02-06 17:48:51

Before I file a bug-report: has anyone else experienced bitlbee failing after the latest xinetd-update? It worked before for me and now it simply does not. No connection possible, nothing. Anyone else got that problem?

Yep, you now have to allow the loopback interface in your /etc/hosts.allow file:

bitlbee: 127.0.0.1

Thanks heaps, elasticdog! It should have been mentioned during the update IMHO. Ah well. Thanks again.

While I don't run bitlbee anymore (it doesn't support jabber transports), I used to run it in the "OMG UNSAFE" daemon mode just fine... in fact, I never even used it with xinetd.

What can I say? You are just such a daredevil.

hey now, I only package it to use xinetd because the bitlbee devs themselves seem to think daemon mode is zomg unsafe...

It's not your fault neotuli. phrakture, leave him alone, you evil man! Well, what should you expect from Skeletor anyway?
