Please see whether [fbbf640b] is ok for you. Yes, this is great for me and more straight forward. I did amend the title slightly, too, but I'm not very particular if you update that.

I didn't test that as the freeBSD handbook reports: service-name The service name of the daemon to start. It must correspond to a service listed in /etc/services. This determines which port inetd listens on for incoming connections to that service. When using a custom service, it must first be added to /etc/services. https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-inetd.html I didn't mention adding inetd_enable=YES to /etc/rc.conf Do think think: a) it should be mentioned b) its assumed as all auto running services need to be added to /etc/rc.conf or like files c) link to freeBSD handbook for more explanation d) keep as is and when system operator attempts to start inetd the OS will report it need to be added into /etc/rc.conf I have no problem with complete documentation as it would help fossil users but the inetd section right now is only a few sentences.
