Most daemons that run through xinetd have the capabilty of running by themselves which proves that they have loads of networking code built in them. xinetd is just a super server that listens an all ports and passes on particular connection at some port to the relevant application which then takes over as if it was a passive listener. -- arc_of_descent (drunk) _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
