I found this, too. It appears to be because of the order in which the
packages get installed by the installer. The linuxconf rpm has a %post
script to add a line to inetd.conf, but apparently inetd gets installed
after linuxconf. Anyway, just add the line:
linuxconf stream tcp wait root /bin/linuxconf linuxconf --http
to the end of /etc/inetd.conf, then restart inetd. Or, if you apply the
errata (before the official CD release (Yikes!)) to remove the suid, it
should also run the %post script and fix things up.
