That is good to know, thanks!

Yes some of my knowledge dates back to about 1997 - RedHat 4?.  I played with Linux in the early 90's (Caldera,Mandrake,mostly Debian) and have done little with it until the last few years.

I have a Fedora Core 5 dev box I setup 3 years ago on a private IP. I do LAMP dev on it.  The other box is CentOS 5 that is a production server.

So yes I am learning and may not know some things (a lot of things).  That is why I posted all those questions.  You will not hurt my feelings in pointing out my flaws.  I want to get it right.  Thanks!

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.
