Hello I have a difficult situation	

I just downloaded the laters version, I hope, of xtrek and have run
into the following problem.  I am running openwindows on a SPARC
IPC with SUN OS 4.1.   I get the following error when trying to run xtrek:

	inetd[111]: xtrek/tcp server failing(looping). service terminated

I am not on a network and I have the machine set up to loopback.  I am
able to ftp to my machine from my machine and telnet works as well.
I added the following to the services file as well:

	xtrek      5701/tcp     xtrek       # take a guess

Any way you can help will be appreciated.  I did, by the way, create
a /usr/games/lib/xtrek directory where in.xtrekd resides...

			thanks in advance....
