Actually, it is the same thing. chkconfig properly handles xinetd based
services.
# cat /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
service telnet
{
disable = yes
[snip]
# chkconfig telnet on
# cat /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
service telnet
{
disable = no
[snip]
If I restarted xinetd, telnet would run as an xinetd managed service.
