Does anyone know this for sure? Recompiling on this server is one thing I 
DON'T want to do (it's on a remote server 100 miles away)

Um, I'm using inited for ftp (and until I get ssh working, for telnet) so 
are you saying inetd needs auth? Or no. Does auth have anything to do with PAM?
Yeah *sigh* I'll add "learning to use IPchains" to the bottom of my 
several-hundred line to-do list. Though, I'd rather wait untill kernel 2.4 
comes out with it's new thing (can't remember the name)
