That's a bit sad. Instead I saw on the handbook that uncommenting a line on inetd.conf should do the trick (I suppose that I must put "inetd_enable" in rc.conf as well..). But I would prefer not to use inetd, because I don't like this concept much. So what should I do ? Use inetd anyway ? What's the best way ? Thanks.
