    bd> 1. The output of the netstat command included the following:

    bd> tcp    0    0  *:telnet        *:*                LISTEN
    bd> 1940/xinetd

This means you have a port listening [open] for telnet connections, this
should be closed.


    bd> 2. The xinetd.conf file is quite short and does NOT contain any reference to
    bd> telnet.  However there IS a telnet file in /etc/xinetd.d that contains this
    bd> line (among others):

    bd>     disable = no

That's the one, change to:
disable = yes
