Ensure xinetd is not enabled (Scored) The eXtended InterNET Daemon (xinetd) is an open source super daemon that replaced the original inetd daemon. The xinetd daemon listens for well known services and dispatches the appropriate daemon to properly respond to service requests. Note: Several other services recommended to be disabled in this benchmark have xinetd versions as well, if xinetd is required in your environment ensure they are disabled in xinetd configuration as well.


Parameter:


Technical Mechanism:

If there are no xinetd services required, it is recommended that the daemon be disabled. Fix: Remove or comment out start lines in /etc/init/xinetd.conf: # start on runlevel [2345]
