RE: [ts-7000] Re: how to request 7250 execute command from external web browser?

["John Lincicome" <>]

Hello Tom,

 I'm not Jim but I did use his script and instructions with success. The only change I made was in the line he added to  /etc/inetd.conf . I assummed that the tailing webserv.sh was a typo and so I didn't include it (i.e., the line I added to inetd.conf is "webcache stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/webserv.sh"). I'm not sure if this is your problem. 

  Incedently, I got HTTP requests rejected when the webcache gizmo wasn't running (or whatever the hell it does). I solved this by killing inetd and restarting with the kill -HUP .... as outlined in Jim's instructions. Also, I noticed sometimes that I had two inetd running and I believe there should only be one. So I would kill the one I hadn't performed the kill -HUP ... on. Hope this helps.

Hello Jim,

I followed exactly as what you did, but my HTTP requests are always rejected.  I am using TS-7250, not 7200. Is that a problem? I don't think your script is wrong, rather, webcache may not be called when I use http://192.168.0.50:8080/hello command.

Is it possible that you forgot to mention any other step? any other .conf also needs to be modified?

Has anybody tried this script on 7250 also?

Tom
