No such file /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd
chkconfig --list | grep xinetd     comes up empty
chkconfig --level 345 xinetd on    errors because there is no xinetd

I thought xinetd was installed as a basic part of linux.  I think I'll just
install http://www.xinetd.org/pub/xinetd/ unless someone hollers back that
this is not a good thing.

Thanks.

Jeanie

what happens if you start it
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd start

What does 
chkconfig --list  | grep xinetd
say?
xinetd   0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
If its off in 345 do
chkconfig --level 345 xinetd on

This will get it to start on boot
