- Under SunOS.4.1.1 and earlier (not sure about later, but I
- would guess it's still that way) you can only have !5! maximum
- arguments in inetd.conf for a process (not counting arg0). This
- applies to many other OS's as well. Either you will have to scrunch
- down your arguments by using defaults where possible (stick the option
- letters together and use the hardwired directory and port), or you can
- pick up "munetd" from your favorite archive source, which uses the
- latest Berkeley inetd code, and also works with Sun's RPC services. It
- allows 20 args per command. Don't use the Berkeley Net-2 inetd off the
- shelf because it doesn't have the RPC hacks.
