Ok below is the xinetd.d file for telnet:
# default: on
# description: The telnet server serves telnet sessions; it uses \
# unencrypted username/password pairs for authentication.
service telnet
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
}
You restart xinitrd by finding its pid so:
ps aux |grep xinetd
then use the kill:
kill -SIGUSR2 <pid>
There is another way to restart xinetd but I can't remember it right
now.
