Better, put the unset HOME inside the /etc/rc.d/inetd script.

Though I suspect that a simple ``skill -HUP inetd'' would have worked in
this particular case.

(skill is a linux-ism that is pretty close to something like kill `pidof
...`.  Actually, depending on which package your /bin/kill came from,
/bin/kill -HUP inetd might have worked as well, but I've some to use skill
by default)
