As others have explained, this is wrong. I'll add that you must not
explicitly specify a port number for xinetd services, unless you also
use the UNLISTED flag. For services listed in /etc/services, the name
is sufficient. Here's the configuration which works:
service pop3
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
server = /usr/sbin/popa3d
}
It also helps to look at your log files after you reload xinetd, I'm
quite sure that xinetd has indicated what your problem is in there.
