I just found that line in sendmail (8.8.8): daemon.c line 335 does a
"sleep(5)" after accept fails.

I can fix that, but why does it fail in the first place? And what about
FTP? I don't think inetd has the same behavoir as sendmail, and why
would they fail at the same time (but nothing else on the system)?
Could another program be interfering with them?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
