Hi  Mike. And thanks again for that thought on running 'service xinetd 
restart"..
 
I didn't know about that one but ran it and tried to telnet in again with no 
luck.

Just so I can have someone else see what I did - Here is what my 
/etc/xinetd.d/telnet2 file looks like:

------------
[root@mach3 xinetd.d]# more telnet2
# default: on
# description: The telnet server serves telnet sessions; it uses \
#       unencrypted username/password pairs for authentication.
service telnet
{
        disable = no
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
        log_on_failure  += USERID
}
------------------

And here is what the entries in my /etc/services file looks like:

telnet2         24/tcp          # - private mail system
telnet2         24/udp          # - private mail system


So - the spelling errors are fixed  'service xinetd reload' has been run and 
this is what I see when I try and telnet into port 24:

# telnet mach3 24
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused


No luck on the ranch..
