Looks like you are calling the inetd binary directly rather than using the script for the purpose in /etc/init.d (unless you are on Solaris 10), for Solaris 9 and below run:
Code:
# /etc/init.d/inetd stop
# /etc/init.d/inetd start

also check that /etc/inet/inetd.conf has not been corrupted.

/etc/init.d/inetd: not found

what does ls -l /etc/init.d/inetd do ?

ls -l /etc/init.d
uname -a

Please run the commands incredible has suggested and post them here and also:
# svcs -a | grep inet

because it is possible you are running Solaris 10 in which case you will not have a /etc/init.d/inetd script because most rc scripts have been moved to SMF.
