I am using RedHat Linux. Let me show the contents of the necessary 
files to you and then ask my question.

----------------
File: /etc/xinetd.d/telnet (contents below)

# 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
}
----------------
File: /etc/xinetd.d/krb5-telnet (contents below)

# default: off
# description: The kerberized telnet server accepts normal telnet 
sessions, \
#              but can also use Kerberos 5 authentication.
service telnet
{
        disable = yes
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd
        log_on_failure  += USERID
}
----------------
Output of ipconfig -L:

with icmp-host-prohibited
----------------
I have tried all of the following commands:-

1. chkconfig krb5-telnet off
2. chkconfig krb5-telnet on
3. /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
----------------
But when I try to telnet into the box from the same machine or a 
remote machine, I get the following error.

# telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
----------------

Can anyone suggest me where I might be making a mistake? Please help 
me because I am new to Linux. I would appreciate any guidance from 
the members.
