Have you tried to connect again?

If the package is aware of the *inetd running, it may have added a configuration to work with that package now that it is installed.

Sorry, I'm not very clear whether "that package" meant xinetd? I haven't reinstalled it yet.


On starting SM with "localhost/squirrelmail'

Options - > Change Password

old passwd/new passwd/reconfirm new passwd

it popup "ERROR:Connection refused (111)"

I think reborg thinks it may detect netkit-inetd.

$ telnet localhost 106
Code:
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

Still the same.


$ apt-cache policy netkit-inetd
Code:
netkit-inetd:
  Installed: 0.10-10.3ubuntu4

Porter was rightm there was a possibility that the package might have been built to detect the inetd in use.

Have you added the appropriate configuration to /etc/inetd.conf ?

I haven't added anything manually on /etc/inetd.conf.


$ cat /etc/inetd.conf
Code:
#<off># ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/proftpd


I manually added following line;
Code:
#poppassd stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/poppassd

at the bottom of /etc/xinetd.conf

now it has been commented out.

If you are using netkit-inetd the you need to add:
Code:
poppassd stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/poppassd

to /etc/inetd.conf assuming you are actually using tcp wappers.

If you are using xinted, you don't add any configuration to xinetd.conf, you create a control file in /etc/xinetd.d (I think that is the correct directory, but since I don't have it I cannot check).
