That is good to know, thanks!

Yes some of my knowledge dates back to about 1997 - RedHat 4?.  I played with 
Linux in the early 90's (Caldera,Mandrake,mostly Debian) and have done little 
with it until the last few years.

I have a Fedora Core 5 dev box I setup 3 years ago on a private IP. I do LAMP 
dev on it.  The other box is CentOS 5 that is a production server.

So yes I am learning and may not know some things (a lot of things).  That is 
why I posted all those questions.  You will not hurt my feelings in pointing 
out my flaws.  I want to get it right.  Thanks!

Not only that, he even has old information on service startup.  Depending on 
the age of his OS, it may not be using sysv scripts to startup, newer Ubuntu 
and Fedora systems use upstart.  So, on newer systems, he has even more facts 
wrong.  All he stated was Fedora, not which service he wanted to start, or 
which version of Fedora he wanted to start it on.

Upstart simplifies things allot.  But only for services converted already, on 
OSes with it installed.

It appears that you don't understand what xinetd is/does.

Personally, I run vsftpd, which does not use xinetd at all. In fact, I've 
removed xinetd from most of my servers.
