What were you trying to do?
	Read the /etc/athena/inetd.conf file.

What's wrong:
	It has a commented-out section referring to tftpd
	that mentions "Digital" and gives a pathname that
	doesn't exist on the machine, which was not
	manufactured by "Digital".

What should have happened:
	The patch below should correct the problem.
