INETD - disable unused services
• The INCNFSMP.NET.SYS template for the INETD config
file INETDCNF.NET.SYS has many services enabled by
default
• You should only enable those services that you are
explicitly using
• Services like echo, daytime, time, discard, and chargen
are not required by MPE
• Some of those services can be used in denial-of-service
attacks
