As far as I was aware, xinetd (or the prior inetd), was just for running services that didn't act as stand-alone, continuously running, services. Xinetd would start them up, as needed. Which, obviously, isn't efficient for anything that's slow to start up. (Been there, done that, before having anything ever to do with Linux.) Perhaps xinetd wasn't working as you thought it did, or that there's a way to use it with ssh in the manner I just described. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
