I have in /etc/xinetd.conf this line:

But entries are going to syslog instead: [....]
Is this a bug?
My read of the man page is that the settings are for each service. The way I had things set up was to have each service in a separate file and then be included. See the "includedir" entry in the man page.
You don't say what service*S* you have this applied to.
ALL. It is a global configuration, in "/etc/xinetd.conf". I simply removed the comment mark in the line, which came from the distribution. If it comes with the distributed package, the line has to be correct, I should not need to read the documentation for that.
I do note that the man page says
<quote> The configuration file may also contain a single defaults entry that has the form
defaults { <attribute> = <value> <value> ... ... }
Well, it is inside the defaults section: defaults { # The next two items are intended to be a quick access place to # temporarily enable or disable services. # # enabled = # disabled = # Previous default in SUSE - please don't forget to use the logrotate. The # sample configuration is in /usr/share/packages/doc/xinetd/logrotate log_type = FILE /var/log/xinetd.log ... } includedir /etc/xinetd.d -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
