I have asked around on IRC but no one had a clue why it was doing it.... inetd is in /etc/rc.conf but it wont run even when i reboot. -- shell# sysctl kern.securelevel kern.securelevel: -1 shell# -- Secure level is also untouched. everything else is fine..sshd is running but i dont know why its doing it to inetd. I would really appretiate a response. Thanks Phyco The #1 FREE E-mail on the Internet at http://www.Gotmail.com. Your Gotmail email address is available to you around the world anytime, all the time.
