Please help!!! inetd.conf

hey all, I can't seem to find my inetd.conf file. looked in /etc, no luck. I need it to configure several things I am trying in a test lab @ home. I am using RH 7.3 any idea where it may have ran off to. Thanks for your help!

hehe, ever get that deja vu feeling?

(not a comment on you, just on how many out of date references to inetd are out there)

you don't have inetd. you have xinetd, which has been in redhat for a couple of years now. each part of the old inetd.conf now has it's own file in /etc/xinetd.d

One reason I like Slackware, it still uses inetd....

Thanks acid, that's what I thought, but just wanted to confirm. I'm gonna post another ? here in a second. Thanks for all the help!

you could have just done

locate inetd

that would have shown /etc/xinetd.conf
