The eXtended InterNET Daemon ( xinetd ) is an open source super daemon that replaced the original inetd daemon. The xinetd daemon listens for well-known services and dispatches the appropriate daemon to properly respond to service requests. Rationale: If there are no xinetd services required, it is recommended that the daemon be disabled.
Solution
Run one of the following command to disable xinetd : # chkconfig xinetd off
