Hang on a second. As far as I know (I hope that I am right), the entries of /etc/services don't have anything to do with the system and about accepting connections or anything. It's simply a conversion table from "servicenames" to portnumbers. Nothing else. Is that right? So this should not have had an impact on your system behaviour. Am I wrong?
As far as I know that's correct. It's just that I have a habit of either deleting or commenting out anything that might cause a problem. Bit like driving down the left or right of the road :) (speaking as someone who has driven all over the world) -- Richard
