Not only that, he even has old information on service startup.  Depending on the age of his OS, it may not be using sysv scripts to startup, newer Ubuntu and Fedora systems use upstart.  So, on newer systems, he has even more facts wrong.  All he stated was Fedora, not which service he wanted to start, or which version of Fedora he wanted to start it on.

Upstart simplifies things allot.  But only for services converted already, on OSes with it installed.

Personally, I run vsftpd, which does not use xinetd at all. In fact, I've removed xinetd from most of my servers.
