Possibly the reason you were "blasted" is that this is incorrect. You
_cannot_ make inetd or xinetd use tcpserver. Your xinetd script doesn't
use tcpserver; it uses tcp-env. tcp-env was originally designed to
allow you to do tcpserver-like operations from inetd, but is now
deprecated. There are precisely zero advantages to using inetd/xinetd
in this manner, and several disadvantages (when compared to a simple
tcpserver installation).
