JFSP> - inetd begone! -> xinetd (better mechanism to control DoS, privilege JFSP> separation, etc.)
Privilege separation etc is nice, but have a look at xinetd source and reconsider. I have tried to fix a DoS-like problem (a timing-related bug that caused temporary disabling of services) in xinetd once but eventually gave up. The code is IMHO unmaintainable and doesn't raise much trust. If a replacement is needed, I would rather look at openbsd-inetd. -- Meelis Roos ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
