I totally agree. It is simply unnecessary to run these network services
by default. Very few need them. I have been wanting to file a report
about it myself for some time, but hadn't gotten around to do it. Now I
have cloned off your report to inform the inetd maintainers. They
should *really* fix this before sarge freezes!
Thanks,
