    Question Services on not well-known ports using INETD

    I want to configure following serivices on non-standard (or not well-known)port uisng RED-HAT LINUX INETD:
    -TELNET, SSH, SNMP, FTP

    1) Is there any issue/limitation doing this?
    2) Any caveat or peculiarities related to any of the services?

    I would appreciate your comments/suggestions.
    Thanks

    Rehat/CentOS uses xinetd for this process now. It's reasonably easy to change the ports, I think - you just edit the /etc/services file to use a different port and make sure the service's configuration file in /etc/xinetd.d has the service enabled, then restart xinetd. Of course, you don't want to more a service onto a port that is used by another, non-xinetd service.

    Thanks for the reply. Out RedHat version is packaged with INETD only. So is it any different supporting services (SSH, SNMP, etc.) using INETD?

    Thanks.
