The inetd has _nothing_ to do with telneting or ftping to another
host. inetd starts the corresponding services when you try to logon
from another host to _your_ machine.

That's a problem in your local SERVICES file. It seems to miss
the important lines for telnet and ftp:

ftp-data           20/tcp                           #FTP, data
ftp                21/tcp                           #FTP. control
telnet             23/tcp

You can find the file in $(SYSTEMROOT)/system32/drivers/etc
