  Modified:    etc       inetd.conf
  Log:
  The kerberised network services should only be active in inetd.conf
  if kerberos is installed.  So far as I'm aware, kerberos aware clients
  detect ECONNREFUSED and (if allowed) fall back to the non-kerberos
  servers.  They do not know how to interpret messages such as
  "rlogind: unknown option -k".
  
  I believe Garrett also mentioned this.
  
  Unfortunately, this adds an extra step to bringing up kerberos.
  
  It also stops /var/log/messages getting quite so many useless (and
  confusing) error messages when somebody does a port scan on you.
