John,

/etc/inetd.conf is installed with the inetd-0.16-4.i386.rpm. /etc/services
is a part of setup-2.1.8-1.i386.rpm. Sounds like you need to installed the
inetd package.

Chris

Subject: [ale] Inetd Setup Question on RH6.2


Hello -

I went to set the network ports and services accessing my new RH6.2
installation ('workstation' 
style setup with a few utilities added), found '/etc/services' as expected,
but then did not find the 
usual '/etc/inetd.conf'. Did I drop this on the floor?

I copied a working 'inetd.conf' from another box, but I am not convinced it
is actually in control -- for 
example, I can't yet pick up an incoming 'ssh', though I can open one on
another host.

I just want to turn unneeded ports 'off' and a couple needed ones 'on'. How
am I supposed to trim 
this?

Thanks.
