(the style is the rough consensus among v6 implementers so it will be
the standard style)

is especially useful for TCP servers which must specify the receive
socket buffer size before the connection is made so that the connection's
window scale factor can be properly advertised.
Example /etc/inetd.conf configuration line:
shell stream tcp,rcvbuf=1m nowait root /usr/libexec/rshd rshd
That line will cause the rshd to advertise a 1 megabyte window, which could
improve the performance of an rcp in some situations.
as part of inetd. uses /etc/hosts.{allow,deny} as tcpd does, etc. it
is basically exactly like tcpd except that you don't need to change
the server to /usr/local/sbin/tcpd.
XXX should document better somewhere
Allow for max # of invocations to be specified; appended to ``wait''
field: wait/nowait[.max]
Allow for RPC specifications in numeric format.
Inetd now stores its pid in `/var/run/inetd.pid'.
Support for AF_UNIX family.
