Guess what I just found out the hard way? If you have any blank lines in /etc/inetd.conf, then inetd silently refuses to start up. In fact, it returns a "success" exit code (0) and then dies. I hope this information helps somebody. I just pulled my hair out over it. This was RISC ULTRIX 4.0 on a DECserver 5400.
