Can anyone help me out installing Qpopper 3.0.2 on Red Hat Linux 7.0.  I've
installed on other versions of Red Hat Linux with no problems.  The problem
now is that with 7.0, inetd has changed to xinetd and the system of
configuration has changed as well.  What I tried (and it doesn't seem to
work) is to create a file in /etc/xinetd.d called pop3 with the following:

# default: on
# Pop3 Service
service pop3
{
        socket_type = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server  = /usr/local/lib/popper qpopper -s
}

this corresponds to the line which was previously in inetd.conf:

pop3    stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/lib/popper qpopper -s

This looks like it should work.  Does anyone have more knowledge on the
subject?
