In the part that you said;
>> *** I have nothing that resembles a daemon process to execute at all.
as root, go to the directory /etc/rc.d/init.d
in there look for the file "sshd"
if you find it, you can run it from there to start the sshd daemon.
or you can start it using "service sshd start"
also you can use "chkconfig ---list sshd" to see if the daemon is not
started when the computer is booting up.
The "telnetd" daemon is started under the xinetd daemon if it is enabled.
Just check if the xinetd daemon is started. It is also under
/etc/rc.d/init.d.
If you want the telnetd service to run, you've got to check in the
/etc/xinetd.d directory and edit the file called "telnet". Where the line
"disable = yes" is found, change it to "disable = no" and restart the
"xinetd" daemon by running
"killall -HUP xinetd".
I hope it helps,
