Xinetd is a replacement for inetd, the internet services daemon.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Xinetd is not just an inetd replacement. Anybody can use it to
|
|
|
|
start servers that don't require privileged ports because xinetd
|
|
|
|
does not require that the services in its configuration file be
|
|
|
|
listed in /etc/services.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Its configuration file has a different format than inetd's one
|
|
|
|
and it understands different signals. However the signal-to-action
|
|
|
|
assignment can be changed.
