hi again!
i solved my problem with google and some other unixes
docs..aix at most
talkd is started via inetd and executable is in
/usr/libexec/in.ntalkd
thus , #which talkd not give me the answer.
other my mistake is that i read man talkd and there is
an entry to mand with no one word for inetd or
in.ntalkd or inetd.conf....
i suggest some small additions in man page:
on bottom add related link to inetd
and on top add "talkd (or ntalkd) can be started via
/etc/inetd.conf and is located in
/usr/libexec/in.ntalkd"
or something like this....and man page will be more
actual and usefull.
sorry for inconvenience , regards!
