I had the same problem with my 1.3 debian (ey, maintainers: could be a bug). Look into your /etc/inetd.conf if the following lines are included: telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.ftpd If not, just insert them and check if in.telnetd and in.ftpd are in /usr/sbin.
