    Summary: xinetd is a powerful replacement for inetd
    Description: 
    xinetd performs the same function as inetd: it starts programs that
    provide Internet services.  Instead of having such servers started at
    system initialization time, and be dormant until a connection request
    arrives, xinetd is the only daemon process started and it listens on
    all service ports for the services listed in its configuration file.
    When a request comes in, xinetd starts the appropriate server.  Because
    of the way it operates, xinetd (as well as inetd) is also referred to
    as a super-server.
    
    xinetd has access control machanisms, extensive logging capabilities,
    the ability to make services available based on time, and can place
    limits on the number of servers that can be started, among other things.
