Sheldon Hearn eb0fde47f8 Allow service alias names from /etc/services to be used when specifying
internal services in inetd.conf .

The inetd(8) manpage used to say that the official name of a service
_must_ be used, yet inetd itself was hardcoded to used a service alias for
the auth service, namely ident!

Rather than change inetd.conf and break existing configurations on next
upgrade, we now allow service aliases as well as official names. This
allows the software to work as expected and still support existing
configurations.

This should not breaking existing wrapped configurations either and the
inetd(8) manpage already states that it is the service name specified in
inetd.conf that is used for calls to hosts_access(3).
