Disconnect the network. Put up a really "thick" firewall. Stop all traffic
to the machine in any case. Is xinetd still busy? Run chkrootkit on the
machine. Is it REALLY clean? A little more history of the machine might be
useful. Xinetd is what spawns some of the connections, such as mail,
telnet, or ftp. It suggests that some machine is trying to log into your
machine and is very (DoS level) persistent about it. It the spawning is
from inside there is a massive configuration problem.
And if this is a new thing, what are the last few changes you made to the
machine's configuration? Back 'em out until the problem goes away.
