Module Description

This module provides for configuration of the xinetd daemon and allows users manage services to run under xinetd.

Examples

Set up an 'uptime' service

xinetd::service { 'uptime':
  server       => '/usr/bin/uptime',
  port         => 12345,
  protocol     => 'tcp',
  user         => 'nobody',
  x_type       => 'UNLISTED',
  x_wait       => 'no',
  socket_type  => 'stream',
  trusted_nets => ['ALL']

Set up VNC forwarding

For this example, an SSH tunnel is expected to be used.

xinetd::service { 'my_vnc':
  banner       => '/dev/null',
  flags        => ['REUSE','IPv4'],
  protocol     => 'tcp',
  socket_type  => 'stream',
  x_wait       => 'no',
  x_type       => 'UNLISTED',
  user         => 'nobody',
  server       => '/usr/bin/Xvnc',
  server_args  => "-inetd -localhost -audit 4 -s 15 -query localhost -NeverShared -once -SecurityTypes None -desktop my_vnc -geometry 800x600 -depth 16"
  disable      => 'no',
  trusted_nets => ['127.0.0.1'],
