I already realized that there is no way we can disable inetd completely until telnet can have a guaranteed replacement, like ssh. =) When RSAREF becomes public domain (or whatever), that's a likely time when we can lock down inetd by default. In the meantime, there's nothing preventing us from working on any other issues that might prevent this from happening. -- Will Andrews GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?
