Replacement for inetd with better control and logging
Maintained by: sem@FreeBSD.org search for ports maintained by this maintainer
Port Added: unknown
Also Listed In: ipv6
License: BSD


Xinetd is a replacement for inetd, the internet services daemon.

Xinetd is not just an inetd replacement. Anybody can use it to
start servers that don't require privileged ports because xinetd
does not require that the services in its configuration file be
listed in /etc/services.

Its configuration file has a different format than inetd's one
and it understands different signals. However the signal-to-action 
assignment can be changed.

Fix what looks like a copy-paste-o that originated in the same script:

command=foo >/dev/null 2>&1
	|
	v
command=foo
command_args='>/dev/null 2>&1'

This is clearly what should have been done, for several reasons.

No PORTREVISION bump because the old version simply ignored everything
after the space, and does not seem to have done any harm. However
it's good to clean these up so that similar errors aren't pasted into
a new script where they might actually matter.

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.
We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.
