this is the default xinetd.conf file on a freshly installed redhat server. (pasted below) how to add the entries to allow for ftp,telnet,ssh etc services. I guess this is the correct file for such services ? can one put any services (daemons that run the services) in this file ? or only some (particular) services are allowed in this file ? # Simple configuration file for xinetd # # Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/ defaults { instances = 60 log_type = SYSLOG authpriv log_on_success = HOST PID log_on_failure = HOST cps = 25 30 } includedir /etc/xinetd.d __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
