+Description: replacement for inetd with many enhancements
+ xinetd has access control mechanisms, extensive logging capabilities,
+ the ability to make services available based on time, and can place
+ limits on the number of servers that can be started, among other things.
+ .
+ It has the ability to redirect TCP streams to a remote host and port.
+ This is useful for those of that use ip masquerading, or NAT, and want
+ to be able to reach your internal hosts.
+ .
+ It also has the ability to bind specific services to specific interfaces.
+ This is useful when you want to make services available for your internal
+ network, but not the rest of the world. Or to have a different service
+ running on the same port, but different interfaces.
