Enable the 512 Port on Solaris 10

The port 512 will not be able to listen any incoming request if rexec service is disabled.

To check status of port:

bash-3.00# netstat -an | grep '512'
bash-3.00#

If its not listening then it will not return any output.

To check status of rexec service:

bash-3.00# svcs rexec
STATE STIME FMRI
disabled 9:49:41 svc:/network/rexec:default
bash-3.00#

Enable rexec service:

bash-3.00# svcadm enable rexec

bash-3.00# svcs rexec
STATE STIME FMRI
online 10:20:26 svc:/network/rexec:default
bash-3.00#

Now check the status of port:

bash-3.00# netstat -an | grep '512'
