Hey folks.
I installed a snapshot from a day or so ago:
OpenBSD 5.0 GENERIC#39
So things change but this doesn't seem to work any more for inetd ...
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/etc/rc.conf.diff?r1=1.141;r2=1.142
This doesn't look right:
# set these to "NO" to turn them off. otherwise, they're used as flags
inetd_flags="" # for normal use: ""
inetd is definitely running on this machine with that flag set NO.
Sad to say I don't understand the new rc.conf well enough to figure
this out on my own.
I'm sure I could add inetd_flags=NO to my rc.conf.local and everything
would work ...
Yep that works.
Hm so where did you think it was set to "NO" before that?
Oh, ah! You modified rc.conf? Think again. inetd_flags are a bit
'special' in that they are handling the legacy "inetd=YES".
Short answer: Don't edit rc.conf.
(if you didn't edit rc.conf, I'm short of ideas unless you start sharing
your /etc/rc* contents)

BTW, maybe it could be:
# Set these to "NO" to turn them off. Otherwise they're used as flags.
Best wishes.
