     /etc/inetd.conf contains the line:
         telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd

     ipfwadm / ipchains ?
         i don't know where these are or what to do with them

     inetd                  is running

     /etc/inetd.conf        identical on the two machines
     /etc/services          identical on the two machines
     /etc/rc.d/init.d/inet  identical on the two machines

     try running "/usr/sbin/in.telnetd" at command line and post results:
