I'm unable to get antiword to process standard input over a network
connection using xinetd. I've got the following in /etc/xinetd.d:

Short answer:
It's not possible.
Long answer:
After the research it took me, I'm just too damned lazy to write it up. Just

I'm using a small program that's started by xinetd. The incoming signal to it

I wrote two versions of the test program, one in Perl and one as a bash script
and both ran into the same problem.
