xinetd service will not start on RHEL 4

Issue

• We are unable to start the xinetd service.

    [root@examplehost ~]# service xinetd start
    [root@examplehost ~]#
  

• We are expecting to see the standard "OK" output.

    [root@examplehost ~]# service xinetd start
    Starting xinetd:                                           [  OK  ]
