(Thanks for getting me started, Chip)

In tracing the problem of the non working telnet and ftp,

I discovered that ident.d won't stay up.

I can try to restart it
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ident restart

It launches OK, leaves a PID in /var/run,
but then when I do a ps -aux, it's not up.

If I do:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ident stop
the process returns FAILED.

So, I'm guessing that telnet and ftp won't work because
there's something fishy with ident.d.

So now where do I look?

I'm going to assume you've installed the packages but the servers didn't
start at boot.  If so, my first guess is that the startup files haven't
been enabled.  You can do that with the chkconfig(8) command.  I suspect
there is also a GUI way of doing it with Linuxconf.
