=====Description=====
''time'' is a network service that responds with the server's current date and time as a 32 bit integer. This service is intended for debugging and testing purposes. It is recommended that this service be disabled.

=====Rationale=====
Disabling this service will reduce the remote attack surface of the system.

=====Audit===== 
Run the following command and verify ''time-dgram'' and ''time-stream'' are off or missing:
<Code:bash>
# chkconfig --list 
xinetd based services: 
  time-dgram: off 
  time-stream: off
</Code>

=====Remediation===== 
Run the following commands to disable ''time-dgram'' and ''time-stream'':
<Code:bash>
# chkconfig time-dgram off 
# chkconfig time-stream off
</Code>
