If you are using vi or vim to edit the file, I believe putting a ! after the
command to save the file (do this as the root user or use sudo) will save it.
So instead of :wq in vi, use :wq!
Another way of saving the file is to do (as root)
chmod u+w /etc/inetd.conf
before you edit the file
or
chmod 600 /etc/inetd.conf
There are many UNIX resources online as well as books that can be useful to
you in learning UNIX commands.
