From the shell, as root: "inetd" With no arguments. Also, it won't start from /etc/rc.conf. I have the lines: inetd_enable="YES" inetd_flags="-wW" Either way, it does not start. The only way I get it to work is by adding the argument "-a <ip address here>" It works by doing inetd -a 127.0.0.1 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Crist J.
