A question about some network services
======================================
Hallo Debian folks,
By default, on my debian boxes, I disable this network
services which are enabled automaticly during a fresh
Debian stable aka "potato" installtion:
* daytime
* time
* discard
All this services are stareted from inet.d / xinet.d
so I can easily disable them via "update-inetd",
so my only question is:
Why are this services enabled by default and
for 'what' exactly do we need them ?
Thanks to anyone for help and suggestions !
Have a nice time,
- Ivo
