What service is not monitored by inetd ? A. SSH B. time C. ntalk D. finger E. None of the above

The correct answer is E. None of the above.

inetd is a superserver that listens for incoming connections on a number of ports and then forks a process to handle the connection. The services that inetd monitors are:

• ftp
• finger
• netstat
• rlogin
• rsh
• rexec
• telnet
• time
• tftp

SSH is not monitored by inetd because it is a secure shell that uses a different protocol than the other services. SSH is typically started as a daemon, which means that it runs in the background and is always available.

ntalk is a discontinued network chat program that was once popular on Unix systems. It is not monitored by inetd because it is no longer widely used.
