I suppose you could a field wrap/nowrap like the wait/nowait field.. but then you'd be butchering the sacred cow of the inetd.conf format... possibly in a non-backwards-compatible fashion. Or you could ugly-hack it using "wait/wait-wrap/nowait/nowait-wrap" which would be backwards compatible, but ugly nonetheless. Just some ideas. HTH. Personally, I would vote for the first solution, but it may not be practical. --- John Baldwin <jobal...@vt.edu> -- http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/ PGP Key: http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
