Re: why does inetd default to enable
In the last episode (Jan 06), fbsd_user said: The 4.9 /etc/defaults/rc.conf file has inetd_enable=YES Why is that? During the sysinstall I answered NO to inetd question. Is this not an error? sysinstall should have created an /etc/rc.conf with inetd_enable=NO in it, to override the default. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well it does not.

RE: why does inetd default to enable
That may be the normal behavior, but it's wrong. Why run the inetd daemon consuming resources when all the optional servers it can launch are commented out in inetd.conf? If not selected in sysinstall inetd should not start. The statement in /etc/defaults/rc.conf should be changed to enable=NO Then it would be correct. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Massimiliano Stucchi Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2004 1:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: why does inetd default to enable On Tue, 6 Jan 2004 12:57:12 -0500 fbsd_user [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The 4.9 /etc/defaults/rc.conf file has inetd_enable=YES Why is that?
