inetd or tcpserver or xinetd?

1999-09-01 Thread Fred Backman

I've search through the qmail website and mailing list, but only grown
more confused, so here goes:

Which is the best of inetd, tcpserver and xinetd if you consider
security, reliability, logging, configurability, etc?
Any other alternatives apart from these?

...or to turn the question around:
Is there anything wrong with (inetd|tcpserver|xinetd)?


cheers
Fred

use tcpserver, its secure fast etc. etc.
for heavy smtp traffic don't use inetd which disables services for a while
when the load on that service is high.
