First, I think the file name you want is 'inetd.conf', not 'inted.conf' But, the reason you cannot write it is most likely that you are trying to do it as a user other than root. You have to be root to write to it. There is a lot of documentation about using a root account. You may have created a password for a root account when you installed the system. If not, then there is documentaiton on how to reboot to single user mode and do it from there. You should never log in as root from another machine. First ssh in with your non-root account so you are using an encrypted transmission and then use su to gain root status. That is all well documented and has been discussed on the questions list many times. So, a check of the archives will also get you the information. ////jerry > > > Best Regards > Behnam Zahabizadeh > behnam1368@yahoo.com > > --------------------------------- > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
