Are there replacements for the old services built in to xinetd? It's a surprise, but there are still network devices for service provider networks that want to use time and/or daytime to set their clocks at boot (so $DAYJOB still has to provision servers with those services enabled on private networks occasionally). Yes, I know it is 2020, and all about NTP and such... but I don't write the firmware in those devices. If you haven't worked on service provider stuff before... it is VERY slow to change. -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
