I need to put the following line in inetd.conf:
stats stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/mrtgsysinfo mrtgsysinfo but my version of linux don't seem to allow that, ie there is no inetd.conf. How do i set that up in linux (red hat enterprise 3).

Go to the /etc/xinetd.d directory. You'll need to create a file (usually named after the program) and put your entries in there. Something like this (don't take my word for it, check out the xinetd man page):
Code:
service stats
{
server = /usr/local/bin/mrtgsysinfo
user = nobody
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
}

error when running xinetd in debug
I also ran xinetd in debug mode. It gave me the following error:
06/10/24@11:37:08: ERROR: 366 {service_fill} Port not specified and can't find service:stats with getservbyname

That's why I said to man xinetd. I gave you a quick and dirty file that may have no relation to what you really need
 Based on the site you probably grabbed this from (http://www.dmzs.com/~dmz/projects/mrtgsystemload.html) and your error message, you still need to update /etc/services. Quote:

Already did that
I already had the line in the services file. I also tried your ports= in the xinetd file but it did not change anything.

Could you please let me know which OS are you using? If you are using redhat or fedora. seems iptables are blocking the port.
Let me know Prashant,
