README.Debian for xinetd
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
xinetd in debian is supposed to work with -inetd_compat enabled (you can
|
|
tweak that in /etc/default/xinetd).
|
|
|
|
Package maintainers that support xinetd in addition to inetd, will drop
|
|
files in /etc/xinetd.d/<service> _and_ add entries in /etc/inetd.conf,
|
|
enabling them using update-inetd.
|
|
|
|
If both an xinetd service configuration id and an entry in /etc/inetd.conf
|
|
match, the xinetd one will hide the inetd.conf one, even if disabled. This
|
|
trick is built to simplify the logic in update-inetd, and let the
|
|
administrators only touch xinetd configuration and don't have
|
|
/etc/inetd.conf mess with that they changed behind their back.
