At some point, you either have to allow auto-editing > of system files, or just leave some stuff to hand-configuration. inetd.conf and services don't need to be auto-edited. You auto-generate them based on the templates in /etc/packages/*/inetd.conf and .../services. You will have to remember to edit /etc/packages/*/inetd.conf instead of inetd.conf itself if you need to tune it. Most people don't. The only file I can think of that can't be done this way without a lot of pain is /etc/master.passwd
