I would bet that telnet server doesn't start automatically - most
distro's don't start telnet automatically anymore - they use ssh - you
should too - telnet is well...telnet
netstat -an|grep :23
that will come up blank if telnet server isn't running, it will come up
like...
tcp 0 0.0.0.0:23 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
if it is running
for NFS - you have to create the 'export'
man exports
see /etc/exports
