If this fails, try locate inetd. Perhaps inetd isn't even installed. On 7.2 inetd.conf and the inetd server are in different rpms.

Well, there's your problem. try

If that says 'done' and not 'failed', try ps aux|grep inetd again. If it's running now, try telnetting. It should work
(fingers
crossed :), and you can edit /etc/rc.config changing the line
START_INETD=
to "yes". That will make inetd start automatically on bootup.
And I agree with Ben. If you have to use telnet
from
a machine on the net, make sure you never use an important password,
like
roots, not even with 'su'. Remember that everything you do is
transmitted
in cleartext.

localhost from the server, then I'm afraid I'm out if ideas.
Anyone else have anything?
