First, please don't cross post to -questions and any other list. If you're
in doubt, please post just to -questions.

Second, you said that you rebuilt your system recently, did you run
mergemaster afterwards? If not, please read the man page and then do that.

Third, exactly what is in /etc/rc.conf regarding inetd?

Last, what is the output of: /etc/rc.d/inetd start

hth,

Doug
