xinetd is a more modern replacement for inetd...

config files are in /etc/xinetd.d

read them and learn, very simple..

as for your apache problem, take a look in /var/www/html  that should point
you in the right direction.

don't use telnet, try ssh, (download terra term pro for windows if you need
a free client) ssh is basically secure encrypted telnet..

telnet isn't installed by default, you will need to install it... and enable
it in xinetd...

but honestly, you should use ssh.. its much better, more secure, can copy
files to and from, and anything else you might want.

Subject: [newbie] thanks...for the fix, and now two or three more
question =)


I wanted to say thanks to everyone who wrote me back with fixes for my usb
problem.  Now I have two or three more questions =)

1)inetd?  I can't seem to find it.  I thought it was normally in /etc?  I
found a Xinetd, but I cant find inetd?  Do I need to run something?  I'm not
sure what inetd even is?  Does it start services?

2)Apache.  I have it up and running because I can connect to the server and
view the default index.  Where does the Apache directory reside?  Is it
called "http"?  I can't see to find the default index file?  Any help would
be great.

3)Telnet.  Again back to inetd.  I read the service starts in inetd?  Is
telnet installed by default?  Do I need to download a telnet package?  If I
do could somebody recommend one?
Thanks...

Alan
