I'd be willing to wager that a good portion of the people reading this list
do not use inetd at all. I replace it with xinetd on the systems that I
administer. A lot of people ditch it altogether and just run everything
under tcpserver.
As far as a "single file" where you can put your "tcpserver configuration",
what's wrong with /etc/init.d/tcpserver?
