Steven,

OK.  Just for information sake, RedHat 7.0 no longer runs inetd!
Instead, it runs xinetd and the configuration files are
/etc/xinetd.conf which points to /etc/xinetd.d/...  The xinetd.d
directory contains files for each of the services that are to be
configured.  This change is one of the things that I have to work on in
the 7.7 release.

re: /etc/hosts.allow needs  mcservsh:       ALL

The last time I looked (last evening), hosts.allow did not have the
mcservsh line in it.  Perhaps as a consequence of this I was unable to
exercise the ADDE remote server successfully even from ftb2.
