Yes, but you can't tell which you you're enabling in drakxservices, as
they are both named 'proftpd'. One could be named 'proftp-standalone' and
'proftp-xinetd'. But as I said, drakxservices needs to be fixed to allow
you to display descriptions or display discriptions in init scripts by
default. I don't believe the xinetd scripts support this format, but they
should be modified to do so as well.

I have no Internet access from Linux right now, but here is what I find:
talk dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.talkd
ntalk dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.talkd
