-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On 2005-03-27, Gert Cuykens scribbled these curious markings: > Is inetd a daemon that start other daemons ?
Kind of. Its manual page is very descriptive. > Is sql and apache a standalone daemon ? SQL is (or is not, depending upon whom you believe) the Structured Query Language. It's a standard, a concept, an idea. It has no representation as software. Certain implementations of SQL, however, in server-based environments manifest themselves as daemons, yes. Certain other implementations in server-like environments don't manifest themselves as daemons (e.g. SQLite). Apache can be run either way, but I've never found a need to run it under inetd. It's always served me well in standalone mode. > Can i delete inetd ? I wouldn't. Why do you want to do so? Besides, unless you add the appropriate flag somewhere in your buildworld infrastructure, it'll be built and reinstalled when you update your base system anyway. > I vote we get rid of inetd :) And I vote that you research your votes before making them.
