Comment the entry of uucp in /etc/inetd.conf

Then refresh inetd with
kill -HUP PID_OF_INETD

You should just disable it in the inetd.conf file by commenting out the

#uucp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/uucpd uucpd

line.

If you really want to remove it will not require a reboot.

Yes, until you either restart or refresh the inetd daemon, uucp will still be enabled, so run "inetd -c".

Hi Amar,

After making the change , you need to regresh the inetd , thats all.

You can disable uucp in /etc/inetd.conf

#uucp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/uucpd uucpd

And
# inetd -c

Cheers,
Raj.
