Subject:   starting smbd and httpd securely (without inetd?)
Message-ID:  <20011029103915.C8535@xs4all.nl>

Hi. I am running a router that connects my internet. Since I have limited
hardware resources, I am 'forced' to run my webserver and fileserver services
on my firewall aswell. 

I do run the LAN that is connected to the internet (by ADSL) on a different
network (192.168.102.*) than the ADSL modem (10.0.0.*)

I would like to know if it's a good idea to run smbd and httpd without
starting up inetd for security concerns, given my above configuration. I
remember reading something about inetd being insecure...

Please include a motivation(-URL) in your reply.
