Command is respawning too rapidly..message

Ran into a new one today at work......

I was told to start 2 servers which were shut down due to a power outage(I don't believe they were shut down incorrectly).

After fsck, both console logins appear with the message:

INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly. Check for possible errors.
> id: #SV "/usr/bin/srload -D -q"


- searching the internet I found :
"/usr/bin/srload is NOT a Sun binary, and isn't on any supplied version of Solaris. I suspect you have a RootKit installed on your system. Probably the X-Org SunOS RootKit, this is the most common one for Solaris. .... Another way to confirm this is if you have the directory "/usr/lib/libX.a". If you do, then you definately have a rootkit on your system."

I have checked Both servers and they do not have /usr/bin/libX.a specifically. (libX*** exits).

Can anyone Please help on this one. Has anyone seeen this before?

-Thanks in advance.

mkitab problem with /etc/inittab respawning

Hi All, May be a dumb question to old AIX hacks, if so apologize. I have worked with /etc/inittab on SCO, but apparently with AIX you should use the 'mkitab' command to add entries instead of just vi'ing the file. I just need a daemon process (script called 'dpr_daemon') to kick off once and... (19 Replies)
