Table 12-4 lists the entries that are required in the
/etc/inetd.conf file.
Check the permissions on the files in the /usr/lbin
and /usr/sbin directories. The files ftpd, bootpd,
telnetd, rlogind, remshd, rexecd, rwhod, and inetd
must be owned and executable by root only. The file
fingerd should be owned and executed by bin only. No
other user should have permission to write them,
although all users can read them.
