What were you trying to do?

        Find out the meaning of all eight fields in /etc/inetd.conf.

What's wrong:

        Only six fields are documented in the man page (found in
        /usr/man).

What should have happened:

        There should be man pages in /usr/athena/man that document
        the operation and configuration-file syntax for the
        version of inetd that is started from /etc/rc. If it is
        thought useful to retain the current man pages in /usr/man,
        which presumably document the behavior of /usr/etc/inetd,
        that would be fine; however, it is more crucial to have man
        pages for the software that runs on the machine by default.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
