xinetd readjusting service, huh?

madsere

Regular Pleskian
One of our clients complained that pop didn't respond and when I checked the service it was down. I started it from the Plesk CP, no apparent problem.

Checking /var/log/messages I found a long list of errors like this:

I only included two "rounds" here, on the server it was going on and on.

What exactly is the server doing when it is "readjusting service", and why?
