>From searching the archives, I got this:
«Go to /etc/xinetd.d/telnet

**disable = no** (ignore the **)
After that change restart xinetd with the command

that I have followed, but still getting:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused

I am running Fedora Core 6 and I have the telnet-server package
installed.
Any further ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Where did '9734' come from?

I am trying to use the Ryacas package and from its site I get the
following:
«2. Telnet problems. If you are unable to get a connection at all try
to connect to yacas manually using:
telnet localhost 9734
and if that fails there is likely a configuration problem with telnet
on your machine.»
Ryacas is a package of R and its site is at
http://code.google.com/p/ryacas/

If `netstat` and `lsof` are foreign to you, use `nmap -p 1-65535
localhost` to see what services you've got open...

I bet you don't have any trouble connecting to the standard telnet
port, so what happens when you just `telnet localhost`?
Cheers,

Okay, you have some massive confusion. A 'telnet server' is used to
provide the telnet service and has nothing to do with some other
services, such as Ryacas. The confusion comes from the fact that you
are using the telnet *client* to connect to a Ryacas server. Whether or
not you have a telnet server won't make any difference, since that's
not what you're trying to connect to.
The steps that you took to get your telnet server running aren't going
to help you at all. You need to get Ryacas running, and then you can
connect to it with any client you want.
