Xinetd and Inetd

Hello, All

So i have read that xinetd is a replacement for inetd and is more secure. Im currently running Inetd. Is inetd unsecure enough for me to upgrade to xinetd? I used Inetd because is came whith freebsd 8.0. And if i should upgrade how do i unistall inetd? I tried to find an answer to that my self but had no such luck.

-Thanks!
 
There's no reason to use either inetd or xinetd. Start daemons as daemons.
 
hosts.allow will work on any tcpwrapper-ready daemon (linked against libwrap, which most of them are, or they can be compiled to be).
