I just want to know if it is possible to use xinetd as a web server to server simple piped commands.

For example, I want the output of ps -ef|grep root|wc -l to be served over HTTP using xinetd (without any other server software). How can I do that?

I would use grep -c instead of piping to wc -l – admstg Jun 24 '22 at 11:51
You should be able to as per https://github.com/rglaue/xinetd_bash_http_service – Ilias Karim Aug 14 '22 at 20:35
