Re: Inetd not started

 Hi,
 
 I'm new to Debian, so this may be a question that I'm only asking because
 I'm not familiar with the Debian way, but
 I've just installed slink onto a machine and although inetd is on the
 system, it hasn't been started. Is this standard Debian policy for security
 reasons?
 
 Either way is the normal way of starting it up?
 

No. inetd should be running.  On boot you should see:

Starting inetd.

As root you can run it by:

/etc/init.d/netbase start

when you run that, you should see inetd being started.

It should be started by /etc/init.d/netbase, which is a symlink from the
/etc/rc*.d directories.
