Connection closed unexpectedly

Hi All,

I have successfully installed and operated subversion 1.3.0 under RHEL3
for the past 1 year.

I am currently creating a sandbox on a RHEL4 box and I have encountered
an issue.

Svnserve is operating as expected when started as a --daemon
(/usr/bin/svnserve --daemon --listen-host lisa --listen-port 3690 --root
/repos)

When I start svnserve as a --inetd process
 (/usr/bin/svnserve --inetd --root /repos)

I get the following error when connecting from svn client.
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly

The only log I could find was in /var/log/secure and it contained the
following

Apr 30 17:46:13 lisa xinetd[8487]: START: svn pid=13330
from=xxx.xx.xx.xx
Apr 30 17:46:13 lisa xinetd[13330]: FAIL: svn address from=xxx.xx.xx.xx
Apr 30 17:46:13 lisa xinetd[8487]: EXIT: svn pid=13330 duration=0(sec)

Is there any other log file I could use to debug the source of the above
problem.
I have tried to use the -X and --foreground argument for svnserve to
gather more information to no avail.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

The package information is as follows

svnserve --version
