Yes, yes, I understand to read the man pages and that the accounts
need to be set up, etc., etc.  I'm not asking for recommendations;
I'm asking for concrete examples that somebody has done already as
I am confused about the man pages.

For example, the man page for sshd says that there is an -i switch
to let it know that it is running under inetd.  Fine, I understand
that.  I don't see what switch to give to sshd on the command line
to get it to forward the connection to another port on the localhost.
I guess it is some flavor of -o?

The man page for ssh doesn't say *anything* at all about inetd. So,
what is it?  -L?  -R?  Which one?  What's the line in inetd.conf
look like?

People: I'm just looking for a concrete actual inetd.conf that someone
actually used.  Sorry to bug everybody: I've been on this list for
well over 2 years; I'm aware of a lot of the configuration issues and
naturally designed the halfchat test protocol to use only one port to
avoid the issues involved with ftp.

It's just that I searched through all 8,395 messages that I've saved,
the FAQ's, the man pages, Dejanews and AltaVista and I didn't find
a real inetd.conf file.  Come on!  Hasn't anyone done this?  Speak
up!  I'm a gonner if I don't have this up by Friday.
