10.5*.8.7 is incorrect.
Missing low value in range for service
For example, field 2 of the Internet address
10.-5.8.7 is incorrect.

10.5-.8.7 is incorrect.
High value in range is lower than low value for service

10.5-3.8.7 is incorrect.
allow/deny field does not have a valid entry for service
The entry in the allow/deny field is not one of the keywords
allow or deny. No security for
this service is implemented by
inetd since the line in the security file is ignored. This mes-
sage is logged at the warning log level.
RPC Related Errors for NFS Users
These errors are specific to RPC-based servers:
/etc/inetd.conf: line
number: Missing program number
/etc/inetd.conf: line
number: Missing version number
Error on the specified line of /etc/inetd.conf
. The program or version number for an
RPC service is missing. This error does not stop the Internet daemon from reading the rest of
the file and configuring itself accordingly. However, the service corresponding to the error
message will not be configured correctly.
Next step : Fix the line with the error, then reconfigure the Internet daemon by executing the
inetd -c command.
/etc/inetd.conf: line number: Invalid program number
Error on the specified line of /etc/inetd.conf. The program number for an RPC service
is not a number. This error does not stop the Internet daemon from reading the rest of the file
