Check Text ( C-36312r3_chk )
Check Content:
Verify network services daemon files have no extended ACLs.
# cat /etc/inetd.conf | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' | tr '\011' ' ' | tr -s ' ' | grep -v '^#' | cut -f6,6 -d " " | xargs -n1 ls -lL

If the permissions include a "+", the file has an extended ACL, and this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-31567r1_fix)
Remove the optional ACL from the file.
# chacl -z /< network-services-daemon>
