You can check whether it's installed by doing "rpm -qa |grep inetd" If not then you can do "yum install xinetd" to install it from RHN online. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Charles Embry Sent: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 1:41 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Cannot find or start inetd(or xinetd) service on Enterprise 5.1 Hello i am installing some backup software for my dep[artments webserver. In the instructions it says in Red hat i need verify that i have the inetd (or xinetd) service started but i cannot find it or start it. Is this something that was missed during the install of Redhat, a option I missed? If so how would I add it without reinstalling Redhat? I have alot of other stuff like, condor, catalyst and mpich configured and would hate to start it all over again. Or is it something else i am overlooking.
