The only time you need xinetd (which is preferred over inetd) is when
you want to run a daemon that requires it. sshd is not one of those
daemons, and neither are any of the major servers. I stopped using inetd
5 years ago and have never used xinetd. I've run ftp, mail, mysql, http,
ssh, and rsync daemons (and probably others) without xinetd.
