Does inetd know you want to use these services? You have to enable them
in inetd before they'll work -- many (nearly all) tcp/udp requests go
through inetd first, which then passes them on to the respective
service.
You have to add or uncomment entries for the services you want enabled
in /etc/inetd.conf.
