Subject: disabling services

\_ In order to disable some services (like telnet) after I've got SSH up and
\_ working I have been commenting out the telnet lines in /etc/services. When
\_ I do it this way though it keeps me from even using the telnet service
\_ myself (to telnet out). What's the best way to disable services that run in
\_ the inet super server?

/etc/services is just a name <-> port listing (maybe even only used
for humans)

you're probably looking to whack the lines in /etc/inetd.conf
