I see port 21 as LISTEN .......... But

I don't see port 23 (telnet).....ummmm! must be the problem?

I checked /etc/xinetd.d/ftp and telnet .....all seems ok there...

Any way to manually get port 23 to listen?

Run 'netstat -ln | more' to see if your box is actually listening on
ports 21 or 23 (ftp and telnet respectively). You'll see something like
the following:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

To disable the firewall with iptables:
$ iptables -F
$ iptables -X

Check your xinetd configs for ftp and telnet and make sure they are
enabled.
