Hi,

What do the following commands mean? what do they do?   What is the information returned from the commands and what does it imply?   I need to understand what i'm doing.

ps -ef | grep inetd   (What is this asking for?   What does it mean?)
Returned the response:
P133    root   712   400   0   05.48   tty1    00.00.00   grep inetd
P75      root   540   380   2   05.49   tty1    00.00.00   grep inetd

ps -ef | grep telnetd    (What is this asking for?   What does it mean?)
Returned the response:
P133    root   540   400   0   05.45   tty1    00.00.00   grep telnetd
P75      root   578   380   5   06.01   tty1    00.00.00   grep telnetd

The P133 has the Telnet Server and emacs installed as server and the P75 does not have either installed.
