If I only could get it to work. Installing ktalkd deinstalls talkd,
but doesn't change /etc/inetd.conf. Thus inetd can't find
/etc/sbin/in.ntalkd as seen in daemon.log. Changing /etc/inetd.conf
so that it refers to /etc/sbin/kotalkd instead of /etc/sbin/in.talkd
and /etc/sbin/ktalkd instead of /etc/sbin/in.ntalkd lead to a loop
(?): the last of about 30 lines in daemon.log:
