Overview

inetd2rlinetd is a script to convert typical inetd.conf(5) style configuration files to rlinetd.conf(5) style configuration files.

Options

-f file

File in inetd.conf(5) format which will be converted. Default in stdin.

directory

--force-overwrite

Forces overwriting existing files with new version.

--print-file-names

Prints to standard output list of generated files.

--add-from-comment

Puts special comment with original inetd.conf(5) line in front of each converted service.

Note

Options -f and -l cannot be used together.
