https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/red-hat-7-2-and-inetd-conf/m-p/2613779#M89635 Hello Scott,<BR /><BR />RedHat 7.2 now uses xinetd instead of inetd. xinetd does not use /etc/inetd.conf, but rather a directory called /etc/xinetd.d with individual files in there for each service. <BR /><BR />These are text files and can be edited with VI or any other editor. If you make a change to a file or add a new file, don't forget to restart xinetd with /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart.<BR /><BR />Regards,<BR />Paga<BR /> Wed, 14 Nov 2001 16:28:50 GMT Marco Paganini 2001-11-14T16:28:50Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/red-hat-7-2-and-inetd-conf/m-p/2613778#M89634 I'm new to linux. Can someone please tell me where the /etc/inetd.conf file went? Thank you.
