How do I run inetd at startup on OpenBSD?

I am trying to backup my Synology NAS to my old NAS. The old NAS has to be an rsync compatible server (according to Synology), and the original OS didn't support it. Fortunately OpenBSD supports my NAS ('landisk', well done!), and I managed to get rsync running in daemon mode. I read the option to launch rsync via inetd. I thought this would be the best option. I followed the instructions in the man pages. Everything is done under the root account. The line rsync 873/tcp was already in my /etc/services. I created /etc/inetd.conf and added the line rsync stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/rsync rsyncd --daemon Then I had to send a HUP signal to inetd. But with ps -A I didn't see inetd running. So I added the line inetd=YES to rc.conf.local, which looks now like this: ntpd_flags= inetd=YES When I enter inetd at the CLI everything works fine. But when I reboot the NAS, inetd is not running. What am I missing?
