Re: [Grml] Grml and inetd

I noticed that my grml does not have either inetd or xinetd installed. So how does my ssh, ftp services get started?

Plenty of services don't run from inetd / xinetd at all. They do their own listening. They get started in your /etc/runlevel.conf file. Here's a fragment of mine:

20 - S /etc/init.d/ssh 20 0,1,6 2,3,4,5 /etc/init.d/postfix 20 0,1,6 - /etc/init.d/vsftpd

Of course, the vsftp never gets turned on...

Coincidentally, /etc/runlevel.conf is one very nice feature of grml. You can easily see just which services run during given runlevels.
