Check for the version of the xinetd package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKA-2006:044 (xinetd). The initscript for xinetd incorrectly set the locale to en_US. If the locales-en package is not installed on the system, some xinetd services may not work properly. This was first noted with the svnserve program from subversion. This has been fixed in the updated packages, which set the locale to a generic value. Users not wishing to apply the update can work-around the problem by installing the locales-en package.
