    I've got the same problem. I've tried to fix the reason of this problem
    using strace, but failed. It seems that after fork() one child process
    just
    dies, but the parent process remains waiting. I haven't find out the
    reason
    why.
    So I also don't know what to do.

    P.S. Everything worked fine with SuSE 6.1 distribution.
    P.P.S. Everything is ok with /etc/svc.conf :)

    Yuri.
