在任何的网络环境中使用Linux系统，第一件要做的事就是了解一下服务器到底要提供哪些服务。不需要的那些服务应该被禁止掉，最好卸载掉，这样黑客就少了一些攻击系统的机会。
查看“/etc/inetd.conf”文件，了解一下inetd提供哪些服务。用加上注释的方法（在一行的开头加上#号），禁止任何不需要的服务，再给inetd进程发一个SIGHUP信号。
第一步：把文件的许可权限改成600。
[root@deep]# chmod 600 /etc/inetd.conf |
第二步：确信文件的所有者是root。
[root@deep]# stat /etc/inetd.conf |
第三步：编辑“inetd.conf”文件（vi /etc/inetd.conf），禁止所有不需要的服务，如：ftp、 telnet、 shell、 login、 exec、talk、ntalk、 imap、 pop-2、pop-3、finger、auth，等等。
如果你觉得某些服务有用，可以不禁止这些服务。但是，把这些服务禁止掉，系统受攻击的可能性就会小很多。改变后的“inetd.conf”文件的内容如下面所示：
# To re-read this file after changes, just do a 'killall -HUP inetd'
#
