However, the man page does not mention this at all: $ man chkconfig | grep -i inetd $ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): chkconfig-1.3.13.2-0.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: man chkconfig Additional info:
This was fixed in chkconfig-1.3.14, and will be in the next major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. With a goal of minimizing change for installed systems, it is unlikely that this will be backported to prior versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
