Synopsis: default inetd install allows for unlimited resource use

Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->dwmalone
Responsible-Changed-By: dwmalone
Responsible-Changed-When: Tue Jan 8 10:52:12 PST 2002
Responsible-Changed-Why: 
I'll take a look at this, as inetd is my problem.

While making making "-c 20" would protect people against such attacks,
I'd be worried about it upsetting people who run inetd at big sites.
Maybe we should run it by freebsd-stable and freebsd-audit and see what
the general opinion is?
