What appears to be the case is that inetutils-inetd is listening ONLY with the 
ipv6 protocol when "tcp" is specified as the protocol 
in inetd.conf entries.  I have been having problems getting git to work, and 
eventually found that by changing the protocol in the 
inetd.conf file to "tcp4" it would start listening with the tcp(ipv4) protocol.

The man pages say nothing of this - implying that the protocol should be one in 
/etc/protocols - yet tcp4 is not an entry in that 
file.  I found the trick by googling - where this issue is mentioned in the the 
ubuntu bug repository.
