I think I solved my problem of rpc.cmsd not able to read the callog
file in Solaris 2.5.1. On the Solaris 2.5 machine that was able to
read the callog file, I noticed that I was running
/etc/dt/bin/rpc.cmsd. Presumably this got installed when CDE got
installed along with Solaris 2.5 Howver when I installed Solaris
2.5.1 on the workstation in question, I did not install CDE.
Thus I was running /usr/openwin/bin/rpc/cmsd.
Evidently there is a difference in the two versions of "rpc.cmsd's"!
However I was not aware of any incompatibilities.
Anyway after installing rpc.cmsd in /usr/dt/bin ( from the SUNWdtdmn
package) and editing the inetd.conf file everything seems to be
running fine.
So exactly how are /etc/openwin/bin/rpc.cmsd and
/etc/dt/bin/rpc.cmsd incompatible ?
