Check or Attack Name: tfsd

The tfsd service was detected as running. tfsd is the daemon for the Translucent File Service (TFS). The translucent file service (TFS) supplies a copy-on-write file system, allowing users to share file hierarchies while providing each user with a private hierarchy into which files are copied as they are modified. Consequently, users are isolated from each otherÆs changes.

Disable the tfsd service if it is not needed.

To disable the service, follow these steps:

1. Edit the /etc/inetd.conf (or equivalent) file.
2. Locate the line that controls the daemon.
3. Type a # at the beginning of the line to comment out the daemon.
4. Restart inetd.
