Might I add in two other cerious problems with xinetd.
1. The first involves proftpd and that fact that for some reason both a
xinetd proftpd script and a standalone script are packaged with proftpd.
In drakxservices, no description is ever given (this used to be F1 in
ntsysv, but in X it should display automatically), so you can't tell
which you are enabling. Even if you enabled proftpd as standalone, both
in its config file and drakxservices, the very presence of the xinetd
script prevents proftpd from binding to this socket, which is odd because
if the xinetd service is disabled there should be no reason why xinetd
would bind to the ftp socket preventing proftpd from doing so.
2. I can't get talk to work. I can't even talk a local user. talk-server
is installed and supposedly enabled via xinetd (drakxservices). talk uses
a UDP connection so I find it a little difficult to test for.
