  Modified files:
    usr.sbin/inetd       inetd.8 inetd.c 
  Log:
  Allow service alias names from /etc/services to be used when specifying
  internal services in inetd.conf .
  
  The inetd(8) manpage used to say that the official name of a service
  _must_ be used, yet inetd itself was hardcoded to used a service alias for
  the auth service, namely ident!
  
  Rather than change inetd.conf and break existing configurations on next
  upgrade, we now allow service aliases as well as official names. This
  allows the software to work as expected and still support existing
  configurations.
  
  This should not breaking existing wrapped configurations either and the
  inetd(8) manpage already states that it is the service name specified in
  inetd.conf that is used for calls to hosts_access(3).
