通过yum查看发现已经安装telnet-server包：
[root@localhost ~]# yum list | grep telnet\*
Repository rhel-debuginfo is listed more than once in the configuration
This system is not registered with RHN.
RHN support will be disabled.
telnet.i386 1:0.17-39.el5 installed
telnet-server.i386 1:0.17-39.el5 base
但是不能通过service 命令启动该服务-----此处表明telnet不是standrand along的服务，而是xinetd的服务
通过查看/etc/xinetd.d/目录发现没有telnet的服务，于是考虑是不是因为没有安装xinetd的包导致的，
[root@localhost ~]# ls /etc/xinetd.d/
eklogin ekrb5-telnet gssftp klogin krb5-telnet kshell rsync
接下来安装telnet-server发现会自动安装xinetd的包--再次证明为xinetd的服务
[root@localhost ~]# yum -y install telnet-server

测试发现仍然不能telnet：
[root@localhost ~]# telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[root@localhost ~]# netstat -tanp | grep 23
没有输出表明telnet没有起来，接着trubshooting（排错）
[[root@localhost ~]# grep disable /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
disable = yes
[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig telnet on
[[root@localhost ~]# netstat -tanp | grep :23
[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig telnet on
[root@localhost ~]# netstat -tanp | grep :23
