The settings would be whatever they were in the build image. Using nimsh AFAIK
would not turn off the other services.

We have a few AIX 5.3 servers that were built without the telnet and shell
services turned on in /etc/inetd.conf. During a recent audit, we discovered
that the services were in fact turned on. They were all originally built with
nim via a mksysb. The connect option used was "nimsh" so I believe rshd would
not have been turned on for that. They have been patched a few times since
the
original build.
I remember a few years ago in the Solaris world that sometimes ftp/telnet/etc
patches would turn on services that were previously turned off. Has anyone
seen that in the AIX world?
We don't think any humans changed the inetd.conf file on these machines. So
we
are left with either that we were mistaken and the services have been on
since
day 1 or that a update to the tcp.[client|server] filesets perhaps turned
these back on.
Thanks in advance!
