Here's two good papers that try to document every single
service (inetd and stand alone) and why they're needed or not.

http://ist.uwaterloo.ca/security/howto/2001-01-15/
    (AIX Network Hardening)
http://ist.uwaterloo.ca/security/howto/2000-09-19/
    (Solaris Network Hardening)

Both papers come with kits to harden off services based
on sample policies. And you can configure your own
policy.

Ps. I may be biased -- they're my papers.
