inetd reurns memory fault.

Hi all,

inetd returns:
Memory fault, Core dumped.

What can I do to prevent this message and start inetd the way it has to
start.

Here's a not so wild guess...

Did you edit the /etc/inetd.conf file w/ ped?

If so, did you turn OFF the "save and load styled text" in ped's preferences?

If not, ped puts some styled text garbage at the end of the file that looks like C comments.  inetd chokes on this, thus the core dump comment

Use cat to dump the contents of inetd.conf and check for the styled text.  You can remove it using ped if you turn OFF the "save and load styled text" option, then open the file and delete the offending characters.
