Well, I am already using ports 23 and 24 for telnet on several other 
machines. That works fine.  But on this ONE machine I must have forgotten to 
do something as port 24 is not recognized.

So - if I have /etc/services file with telnet2 port 24 installed, and a new 
entry in etc/xinetd/telnet2 - and things have been started using chkconfig, 
what else is there to do to have port 24 working?? Have I forgotten something.
