It appears both the OS's inetd and the athena inetd,
under Solaris, attempt to bind to the daytime and time ports.

One notices in the logs of xcb:

Jun 22 07:22:58 x15-cruise-basselope.mit.edu inetd[346]: daytime/tcp: bind: Address already in use
Jun 22 07:22:58 x15-cruise-basselope.mit.edu inetd[346]: time/tcp: bind: Address already in use
Jun 22 07:32:58 x15-cruise-basselope.mit.edu inetd[346]: daytime/tcp: bind: Address already in use
Jun 22 07:32:58 x15-cruise-basselope.mit.edu inetd[346]: time/tcp: bind: Address already in use

periodically.

Checking the config:

[x15-cruise-basselope!jhawk] /var> grep daytime /etc/inetd.conf /etc/athena/inetd.conf
/etc/inetd.conf:# Echo, discard, daytime, and chargen are used primarily for testing.
/etc/inetd.conf:daytime stream  tcp     nowait  root    internal
/etc/inetd.conf:daytime dgram   udp     wait    root    internal
/etc/athena/inetd.conf:daytime  stream  tcp     nowait  unswitched      root    internal        internal
/etc/athena/inetd.conf:daytime  dgram   udp     nowait  unswitched      root    internal        internal
