I think you mean tcpserver vs. inetd. FWIW, I found the installation of tcpserver almost trivial--the easiest part of installing qmail. And Qmail is well worth the effort. -- Mark "T.C."

I'd recommend really paying attention to what is on the web-site. I remember when I set it up last, there were some issues with tcp-wrappers vs. inetd. (been a while) I wished I had read more on the site before slaving away at it. * Blake
