Hi,
I know that most servers controlled by inetd or xinetd are rather not safe.
Better replacement is sshd.
Do I need inetd if I plan to install sshd?
I was told that inetd is the most important daemon in Unix system.
If I do not intend to unlock any of the services run by (x)inetd do I
have to install it?
I know, the answer is, it depends what you want to accomplish.
I am going to setup a Linux system on my desktop, with possibility to
transfer files from/to other boxes. sshd would be enough for me.
My question is, will be my system handicapped in any way, when I decide
not to install (x)inetd?
In BLFS book there is no advise in that subject. Only the suggestion
that xinetd is better than inetd.
