[cobalt-security] chattr command on inetd.conf file & the GUI

Recently I used the "chattr +i" command on my
inetd.conf file (while as su). While I *usually* do
things from behind a comand prompt, I've noticed that
the GUI complains that the /etc/ined.conf file is
"locked" even if the "chattr -i" command is issued on
the file prior to trying to make changes via the GUI.
Nor will any changes be made/accepted via the GUI as
it just complains that /etc/ined.conf is locked.
So basicly I have to forgo changes via the GUI
(services) page and just work from a command if
changes to ined.conf are required.
Can anyone tell me how to completly remove chattr from
this file so the GUI will stop complaining? I
seriously thought "chattr -i" was all that was needed
to remove "chattr" settings from a file, but the GUI
seems to think otherwise..
Thanks!
Scott
