Install inetutils package. 2. Run iu-config. 3. Install sysvinit package. 4. Run init-config (install init as service, make sure it starts OK) 5. Install initscripts package. 6. Install xinetd and chkconfig packages. Try: /sbin/telinit 1 then, /sbin/telinit 3 and you should have xinetd up and running, check event log for sanity (I get "permission denied" errors for /dev/console when changing run levels). You should first remove/uninstall the packages above, if lingering around, before taking those steps. It's been some time since I'd resolved this issue for myself, so I could be missing some details, just beware. -- A.
