SSH, at least by default does not use inetd, so it shouldn't have been affected.

You might need to stop and restart ssh.

If you are using HP's SSH bundle:
# /sbin/init.d/secsh stop
# /sbin/init.d/secsh start

OK. Thanks.
What could be the known reasons ....for inetd going down...
Atleast in my experience i have never seen an inetd itself going down when the system is up and running.
Thanks

hi,

restarting inetd doesn't affect ssh since ssh is a third party utility. u need to restart the ssh daemon as suggested .

Signal 15 is the default for the kill command. The OS would not send a kill 15 to inetd so someone with root capability probably mistyped the PID number and killed inetd by mistake.
