running freeradius with xinetd....?

[obi-wan]

i have taken delivery of a RHEL server with FreeRadius installed and
running from XINETD. _the radius sever is not performing as expected and
spews the following ERROR to the log file; " There appears to be another
RADIUS server running on the authentication port 1645 "
when i attempt to dial and log in.


the /etc/xinetd.d/radius file
# default: off
# description: radius server
service radius
{
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes
        user                    = root
        server                  = /usr/local/sbin/radiusd
        server_args             = -y -z
        log_on_success          += USERID
        log_on_failure          += USERID
        disable                 = yes
}


when i run the "radiusd" daemon in stand alone mode from the command
line the Radius server performs as advertised. _i'm i missing some
settings or maybe  "radiusd" can't be run from xinetd.? 


hardware: HP proliant DL320
FreeRadius version 1.1.6 for host i686-pc-linux-gnu
RHEL 4u2  

any and all suggestions will be appreciated.........thanks to the
opensource community.
