If you want to get some expert explanations that I do not have time to give, you could ask the list...
But in general, if this is the client's concern, then they are probably missing opportunities for behaving in secure ways. Having a standalone version of inetd does not make it any more or less secure than if inetd or xinetd launches it.
Yes, My client doesn't want to use xinetd due to (hist) security issue though I am not really sure if stand-alone mode would be any better in security. -----Original Message----- From: DK Smith To: Kang, James Sent: 1/15/03 9:02 PM Subject: RE: amandad without xinetd so you are asking if a stand-alone daemon style version exists... like sendmail runs as a daemon, listening to the port it listens to... ?
