[ale] 'xinetd' question

[Chris Egolf]

I'm using the following cvspserver file in /etc/xinetd.d on the cvs server.

# default: on
# description: CVS Password Server service.
#
service cvspserver
{
#       flags           = REUSE
         socket_type     = stream
         protocol        = tcp
         wait            = no
         user            = cvs
         server          = /usr/bin/cvs
         server_args     = -f --allow-root=/home/cvsroot pserver
         log_on_failure  += USERID
         disable         = no
}

I've also got a 'cvs:127.0.0.1 10.3.1.' entry in my /etc/hosts.allow on 
the cvs server.
