Display type:		ffb

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		/var/tmp/ctwm

What were you trying to do?
	update my workstation from 8.2 to 8.3

What's wrong:
	the /etc/athena/inetd.conf.old is not actually a copy of
        my inetd.conf as promised.

        Also, I wasn't warned about /etc/athena/login/config changing.

What should have happened:
        a clip from what /etc/athena/inetd.conf.old looked like:

ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/athena/etc/ftpd    ftpd -C -E
telnet  stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /etc/athena/telnetd     telnetd -a cred -e
#shell  stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/sbin/in.rshd       in.rshd
#login  stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/sbin/in.rlogind    in.rlogind
kshell  stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/athena/etc/kshd    kshd -k -e
#klogin stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/athena/etc/klogind klogind -k
eklogin stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/athena/etc/klogind klogind -k -e
rkinit  stream  tcp     nowait  switched        root    /usr/athena/etc/rkinitd rkinitd
finger  stream  tcp     nowait  unswitched      daemon  /usr/sbin/in.fingerd    fingerd
write   stream  tcp     nowait  unswitched      root    /usr/athena/etc/writed  writed
busypoll dgram  udp     wait    unswitched      nobody  /etc/athena/busyd       busyd
athinfo stream  tcp     nowait  unswitched      root    /etc/athena/athinfod    athinfod
gshell  stream  tcp     nowait  unswitched      root    /afs/net/system/gsh/bin/gshd gshd

	the actual /etc/athena/inetd.conf that it should have saved
        had (for example) ftp turned off, telnet as the only switched
        service, and finger, write, busypoll and gshell commented out.
        And of course there was no athinfo line since it didn't exist
        in 8.2 (big hint).

	As for /etc/athena/login/config, I should have been warned
        that it was a configuration file that was going to be changed.
