Also should mention RTFM! man xinetd shows you should look at man 5
xinetd which explains all. There's also more info at www.xinetd.org

Re: [expert] Damn ftpd
Hmm You can turn off your ftp server with the following (as root): # service ftpd stop and stop it from starting on boot with # chkconfig ftpd off All of your services can be dealt with in that manner. Turning them back on is done with the same commands except substitute start for stop and on for off. Good luck. j --- Praedor Tempus [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I thought I understood this but I guess I do not. I do NOT like having wu-ftpd up and running by default and I want it to DIE DIE DIE!

Re: [expert] Damn ftpd
Oh, the other thing is it may be getting started by inetd.conf. You need to edit /etc/inetd.conf to change that. Check the manpage for inetd.conf. j --- Praedor Tempus [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I thought I understood this but I guess I do not.
