XINETD_SVC

The “XINETD_SVC” audit check is used to audit the startup status of xinetd services. The check consists of four mandatory keywords (type, description, service, and status).

Note: This only works on Red Hat systems or a derivative of Red Hat system such as Fedora.

Tip: For information about the parameters commonly found in Unix custom items, see Unix Configuration Keywords.
