Enable telnet service on HP-UX

check if there is an entry at /etc/inetd.conf
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/telnetd telnetd

-comment it out, then

run the command "inetd -c"

and you can verify whether the telnet is running by the command
"netstat -an | grep 23"

if there is any line is there in the output like
"tcp 0 0 *.23 *.* LISTEN"

means telnet is running.
