i appreciate your help, thanks.
'chkconfig --level 35 xinetd on' gives:
error reading information on service xinetd: No such file or directory
'/etc/init.d/xinetd start' gives:
bash: /etc/init.d/xinetd: No such file or directory
what might be some reasons for this file to be missing from my installation?
btw - Jason, your explanation was well rec'd thanks to you as well.

Net net, the ps command is telling you that you do not have xinetd
running. Do
chkconfig --level 35 xinetd on
to make sure it starts at boot time for runlevels 3 and 5. Then do
/etc/init.d/xinetd start
to start it in your current session.
As for RPMS that put a config in that directory, go to the RH 7 CD's and
install the rpm for telnet-server, for example.
