Problem connecting to gnatsd

[Koundinya]

Hi all,
        Sorry if this is a very Frequently asked question. I've  
installed the latest gnats gnats-3.999.1 and the latest gnatsweb 
too. I have got the command line Interface working.

address@hidden /proc]# cat version 
Linux version 2.4.2-2 (address@hidden) >
(gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-79)) >
 #1 Sun Apr 8 20:41:30 EDT 2001


I have made entries in /etc/xinetd/support. Entry in 
/etc/services already exist.


address@hidden /proc]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/support 
service support
{
   disable      =       no
   socket_type  =       stream
   protocol     =       tcp
   wait         =       no
   user         =       gnats
   server       =       /usr/local/libexec/gnats/gnatsd
   server_args  =       gnatsd
   log_on_failure          += USERID
}

To install gnatsweb when I do

make test USERNAME=gnats PASSWORD=gnats123 DATABASE=default

The connection to gnatsd fails

When I try to do a telnet to port 1529, I get a connection 
refused. I don't see much error details from /var/log/messages.

I have created a gnats user

address@hidden /proc]# cat /etc/passwd | grep gnats
gnats:x:509:509:GNATS:/users/gnats:/bin/bash

Any other pointers to help me troubleshoot this problem. 

I just tried the similar experiment on Solaris x86 and though I 
have not set up databses, I'm able to connect to 1529 and then 
the connection closes citing that the database was not found 
(that's O.K, but atleast I'm able to connect).

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, 

Koundinya
