I can not (competently) reproduce your bug.

If I write tabs as \t and pipe it to itox, I get your error:

% echo "csync2\t\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\troot\t/usr/sbin/csync2\tcsync2
-i" | itox
service csync2\t\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\troot\t
{
	type            = RPC
	rpc_version     = usr/sbin/csync2\tcsync2
	socket_type     = -i
Line 1: protocol missing



But if I cat the generated /etc/inetd.conf or the configuration string,
everything works fine fore me:

% cat /etc/inetd.conf | itox
service csync2
{
	socket_type     = stream
	protocol        = tcp
	wait            = no
	user            = root
	server          = /usr/sbin/csync2
	server_args     = -i
}

% echo "csync2 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/csync2 csync2 -i"  | itox
service csync2
{
	socket_type     = stream
	protocol        = tcp
	wait            = no
	user            = root
	server          = /usr/sbin/csync2
	server_args     = -i
}


Convertig the configuration looks like:
% cat /etc/inetd.conf | itox >  /etc/xinetd.d/csync2


Can we close this bug?
