I'm not sure what inetd will think if this entry since glftpd is not a
"well known service" according to the inetd man page. (It doesn't
exist in /etc/services.)

You could probably add a line in /etc/services to whatever port glftpd
is listening to, taking care not to use a port already assigned to
another "well known service."
