The debian camp and its offspring ubuntu, hasn't made the switch yet that I'm aware of. I just installed kubuntu-6.06 on my milling machines box so I could stay reasonably well synched with the emc2 cvs, and was amazed that the default install was still using inetd, or at least the whole /etc/xinetd.d thing seemed to be missing. I installed it, but the basic install contains only: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls /etc/xinetd.d chargen daytime echo time So its not as if the system would die if I did an rm -fR /etc/xinetd.d. The added advantages of xinetd over inetd would seeem to make it imperitive to switch, but then we all know the debian camp moves at glacial speed for the core stuff. Maybe thats an unfair remark Jon, I just did a cat of /etc/inetd.conf and found it only contains: #<off># netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/smbd so what the heck *are* they doing to control daemon launching? Me wanders off, scratching head in wonderment. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
