I have inetd disabled on almost all of my systems (including all my
firewalls).  If you have commented out every service in inetd.conf,
there is no need to run inetd, it has nothing to do and just sits
there.

Subject: inetd needed for basic NAT/Firewall operation?


Hello,

When using OpenBSD only as a NAT router / Firewall with all of the 
services in inetd.conf commented out is there any need to enable inetd? 
I believe it's no longer necessary for ftp-proxy and want to make sure 
I'm not missing anything.

Thank you.
