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. -- Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org> Wed, 28 Nov 2007 11:55:48 +0100
