Executing script on receiving incoming connection with xinetd

Question

I want xinetd to execute a shell script when a connection is received on a certain port. To accomplish this, followed this tutorial: [enter link description here][1]

Answer 1

service testservice
{
    port            = 5900
    socket_type     = stream
    protocol        = tcp
    wait            = no
    user            = root
    server          = /usr/bin/testscript.sh       
    server_args     = test
} 

You're right, I couldn't get yours to work. The above seemed to.

Make sure that testscript.sh is set +x and at the top contains #!/bin/sh (in your example it does appear that way)
