Interesting. I run Samba directly, not under inetd. My primary reason for this is that smb.conf allows you control which interfaces samba listens on and I can therefore restrict it to my internal interfaces and not expose it to the outside world. By running it under inetd, won't this capability be lost, since inetd will listen on all interfaces, and you'll have to be more careful with the firewall ? H.
