As for telnet:
First check if you really have a file "in.telnetd" in /usr/sbin. If not,
you have to install the "telnet-server.rpm" (only the telnet-client was
installed by default here).
Then check your /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files.
You should have something like this in hosts.allow:
in.ftpd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
in.telnetd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
You may want to deny access to all others (other than listed in
hosts.allow) with an entry in hosts.deny:
ALL:ALL
Just a few thoughts...
