INIT complains about inetd respawning too rapidly. The solution, previously, was said to be "newconfig appletalk" or "newconfig nfs" - nope, no go. I've checked the syntax of servers and the validity of the programs there referenced, as compared to the distribution. Trying "talk" yields: [Couldn't bind to control socket : Can't assign requested address (69)] I think this is a symptom of inetd not running... But it could be symptomatic of something else, causing inetd to fail. Running the thing by itself terminates in about no time at all with status 0. This is on an 8 Mb IIfx running 2.0 installed from the CD (and I have some symbolic links out to the ROM to save space) Any help appreciated, since I'd like to use Berkley sockets...
