Restarting inetd on Solaris 8

Whenever you make changes to inetd.conf you should restart the daemon to make the changes effective.


The easiest way is to type something like this…

pkill -HUP inetd

This will send a HangUP signal to inetd so it will restart again and load its config file. Take a look at syslog to make sure you haven’t broke anything.
