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. -- Archaic Want control, education, and security from your operating system?
