inetd isn't running. See below.

Do you have netkit-base installed? It is the package that contains
/usr/sbin/inetd and its config file /etc/inetd.conf. It would seem odd
that it wouldn't be installed because it is very basic and I would
expect all distros to install it. But either this package isn't
installed or you have deleted the inetd.conf file. You need to make
sure this is installed, ftp and telnet are enabled and then start inetd
with:
sh# service inet start
