Does anyone have any experience with hacking Debian's scripts to get a system happily running networking without portmapper, or even without inetd? Any issues to be wary of in this area?
The motivations: * portmapper: I can't see what need I have for it - therefore it just becomes a security liability * inetd: with all esential services (e.g. postfix, ssh) running as daemons, what need is ther for this too (I'll admit to being not entirely convinced on thi one yet)? Thanks, Neale.
