Do you really need to set it globally?
You could use the [.max] part of each configuration line for a
service-specific setting.
Not sure that I follow what you are saying here.
man inetd.conf
-R rate
Specify the maximum number of times a service can
be invoked in one minute; the default is 256.
If you refer at this part:
wait/nowait[.max]
I already have this:
tftp dgram udp wait.6000 root
/usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -ls /distribution/phones/cisco
However, that doesn't help the limit of the 256 per minutes here.
Get plenty in the logs with deny connection, if I do not start inetd
with the -R 1024 as well.
So, may be you understand something I do not, and if you add to your
suggestion more details, may be I can follow.
from inetd(8):
The optional ``max'' suffix (separated from ``wait'' or
``nowait'' by a dot) specifies the maximum number of
server instances that may be spawned from inetd within
an interval of 60 seconds. When omitted, ``max''
defaults to 256.
I just assumed, since the numbers also matched, that the -R option
changed the default from 256 to whatever. I have not, however, used
inetd actively in a long time, so I may be wrong.
It could be worth browsing the source to find out. :-)
