Hi folks,
I'm following up to the discussion that's taken place recently over the
issue of the base system not including a tcpd.
I believe that quite a few folks want tcpd to make up for a few problems
with our inetd's libwrap support. Those who fall into this category
should try and comment on the diffs attached to PR 12097 .
While it may be true that inetd's libwrap problems currently support
the argument for a tcpd in the base system, our end goal is to offer an
inetd that makes it completely unnecessary. This means that including a
tcpd in the base system only to remove it later would be silly.
Ciao,
Sheldon.
PS: It's amazing how many people have so much time for offering
misguided arguments, yet so little for working on the issues.
