try upgrading to the xinetd errata and see if that fixes it.
How would I do this? RHN says my system is up-to-date. RPM shows xinetd-2.3.7-2.
Hmmm. Strange. I was sure there had been an xinetd errata. There is a bug with xinetd that fails to start fam if you've enabled tcp-wrappers. If this is that problem you should have gotten some log messages about not being able to get peer address. Other possible causes: You disabled one of portmap, fam, xinetd. You've firewalled off one of the above apps for local access.
Have you verified this is not one of the possible causes listed above?
This is more than one year old and I didn't got any error report about this since, I think this can safely be closed. Daniel
