When I rkinit to a machine that does not have rkinitd installed
locally and is not activated, inetd immediately signals that it cannot
exec rkinitd.
However, rkinit hangs around for 60 seconds waiting for something
from the rkinitd that just isn't going to come.
Shouldn't rkinit notice immediately that rkinitd didn't run? Other
inetd clients (rlogin, telnet, etc.) seem to be able to do this....
