I am further than I was: inetd was not starting. What script is inetd normally started from? I should add that this system was installed with the "secure" option, so it probably isn't doing lots of things that a default installation would do automatically. For example, I also need to get it

Hi all -- I assume this is a response to Donald Welker's original and then follow-up query about FTP and Telnet. I agree with Greg that the config is quirky, but I disagree that it is a matter of login name/password on the local machine. I was actually able to fix FTP (but not Telnet) on
