[users@httpd] Apache - inetd mode

Hi all,

   I am using RedHat 9.0. I was going thru a book on Apache (based on 1.3) and it said that inorder to run Apache in inetd mode we also have to edit /etc/inetd.conf. However I cudnt find such a file. Instead, there is a directory named xinetd.d that has a number of files. I believe each file is named after a service listed in /etc/services. But, I didnt find a file named http or https. Should I create such files and enter the necessary information so that Apache can run in inetd mode?

Thanks in advance,
Bijoy.

Question:  Are you using the RPM install which comes with RH or did you
build it from source?

If the RPM, just do /etc/init.d/httpd start as root and you'll be off...

if via source code, you'll need to cd to your httpd bin dir, and execute
apachectl start

Nevermind that xinetd stuff... good to learn about as you'll more than
likely use, but it's you're just worried about apache right now, don't
worry about it.
