I can manually start it using "inetd -a 192.168.1.214" - and it stays. Just typing "inetd" results in the same thing. The process shows up for a few seconds and then quits. Should I modify the rc files to reflect the -a parameter, or is there something else? Unless you have a special reason to use the '-a,' you should not need it. Can you check the output of, $ grep inetd /etc/defaults/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf (We all know you didn't do something silly like modify the defaults/rc.conf, but just to get the complete picture...) Also, does inted leave any messages in /var/log/messages? -- Crist J.
