"man xinetd.conf" says that you need "type = UNLISTED" for services
not listed in /etc/services.  This is a feature in newer versions of
xinetd.  You may still be running an old version on your Red Hat Linux
7.2 system that pre-dates this requirement.

I don't think it would be practical to get Samba to work under Xinetd.
And why would you want to?  Samba already has a reasonable set of
access controls.
