I need to edit this file. It is the file that shows what services start up at boot. However... in Redhat 7 this file does not exist. Does someone know the name of it in RH7?

Try tksysv, I think that's what it's supposed to be (TK app for System V startup configs..)

----edit----
Duh, I need to read the whole question. It's a fallacy that inetd.conf (or xinetd.conf) shows what services start at bootup. It shows what will start when you receive a connection on a certain port (of a certain type, if applicable). It has little to do with booting the machine. The tool I mentioned will indeed adjust the stuff that comes up when you boot (and not edit stuff in inetd.conf).

Doesn't rh7 use xinetd package?
Try to see if you have /etc/xinetd.conf and if you do then rh uses xinetd.Hope this helps.
