As RedHat 7.1 comes installed, these services are generally disabled.
You need to look in
/etc/xinetd.d
See each service (eg telnet) has its own file.
If you remove the line in telnet
disable = yes
Find the process ID for xinetd
ps -ef | grep xinetd
then kill -USR1 pid_of_xinetd
eg kill -USR1 676
Then it should work for you.
You might want to revise your firewall rules if you are going to connect the
machine directly to the internet with the telnet service enabled.
Regards,
Jill.

Subject: [SLUG] redhat 7.1 firewall
I install redhat 7.1 recently, but I could not disable the firewall. I can
ping to it, but I can't telnet or ftp to it.
Any idea ?
