Check /etc/sysconfig/ipchains and see if you see anything on the INPUT
section on port 22 which would mean it's being blocked.  You would need to
delete that rule from that file.

For telnet (even though you shouldn't use it unless absolutely have to),
chkconfig telnet on then service xinetd restart.  Might want to make sure
this one isn't blocked either.
