I didn't realize that would work - unless you're joking and
it can't be done. I decided early on that I didn't like
xinetd so I immediately looked for an alternative. Sometimes
abandoning software based on first impressions is the wrong
thing to do. I did that with grub early on and later found out
how powerful it is.
