There shouldn't be an rsh process running. xinetd starts it when a

The best way to troubleshoot xinetd problems is to start xinetd in
debugging mode.

xinetd -d

If you see that the servive started then you can do a netstat -ap and
look for the service name in there (shell/login/exec for rsh/rlogin/
rexec). Once there you should be good to go =)
