reassign 430849 update-inetd thanks
This is a problem of update-inetd which lacks completely the hostname/addresses list prefix management. I managed to add a pre-check before adding the ftp line in 1.3.0-25. but update-inetd --enable/--disable does not work anyway and that should be the right program where parsing should be done correctly.
