hi ya
grep nmbd /etc/inetd.conf
- if you dont get any matches...its NOT affected..
and similarly hosts.deny,hosts.allow does nto affect samba either
- if it is listed... okay... it does get affected..
but donno why you'd wanna run it from inetd...
( think slackware has it(nmbd,smbd) in inetd ... )
- you can and should start samba with rc.samba...NOT inetd...
ftp is bad....use scp especially when dealing with firewall...
