No.
lo is in the routing table of the kernel (netstat -r), but nothing for netstat
-a.
In the inetd.conf, I have:
ftp  stream    tcp  nowait    root /usr/sbin/tcpd  ftpd
( I've removed all the other lines )

When I execute inetd -d (on background), I have:
     ADD : ftp proto=tcp, wait.max=0.40 user.group=root.(null) builtin=0
server=/usr/sbin/tcpd

So it seems that inetd doesn't listening for connections. (?) Where does that
come from ? I use inetd coming from netkit-base-0.10-10.src.rpm. Should I use a
newer version as well ?
