The telnet server is called by the inetd metaserver whenever you attempt
a telnet connection on your server.

In order to have a working telnet server, you have to :

1/ check inetd is started at boot time (see /etc/rc3.d or /etc/rc5.d)
2/ check the in.telnetd line isn't commented out in /etc/inetd.conf
3/ check there is an in.telnetd line allowing connections in /etc/hosts.allow

Kind regards,

Yann
