I was in W91 today, and did two things:

	1. Started /etc/athena/inetd

	2. Found out why it didn't start itself.

Although the line to start /etc/athena/inetd does appear in
/etc/init.d/inetsvc, the /etc/rc2.d/S72inetsvc script is a file, not a
sym-link to ../etc/init.d/initsvc.

The file in rc2.d lacks the start up of /etc/athena/inetd.

For this reason remote access is off on a restart of the machine.

Miki:  If it seems sane to you, move the /etc/rc2.d/S72inetsvc file to
/etc/rc2.d/S72inetsvc.orig, and make a sym-link to /etc/athena/inetd.

I didn't do this myself because I didn't presume to know if doing this
was a sanctioned or unsanctioned hack.
