Close, not quite. /etc/xinetd.d/ contains files for each service that xinetd manages; xinetd.conf just contains configuration for xinetd itself. xinetd and xinetd.conf each have manpages, I think the former is probably the best place to start looking for configuration information, but the file you want to look at will be /etc/xinetd.d/telnet [standard disclaimer: telnetd should be wandering toward extinction; these days there is almost no reason not to use sshd for all remote shell services, even on private networks.] -m Statux wrote: > > look at /etc/xinetd.conf (I think that's the file) > > On Mon, 12 Mar 2001, Bruce Kall wrote: > > > I just reinstalled by Linux box from the RH7 CD (not an upgrade). > > Unfortunately > > I installed it as a 'workstation' rather than a 'server'.
