Lots of disinformation going on in this thread. The telnet service is normally provided under the control of the inetd super-daemon. It is fully documented in the manual page for inetd. The usual configuration file for inetd is /etc/inetd.conf It is normal to find the telnet line in the above file commented out by default as supplied by the distribution as the telnet service is regarded as insecure and should not be used over a public network. However, for use within a private network it is simple to enable telnet; just remove the comment symbol from the obviously relevant line in inetd.conf, and then restart inetd.
