That's why I said to man xinetd. I gave you a quick and dirty file that may have no relation to what you really need
Based on the site you probably grabbed this from (
http://www.dmzs.com/~dmz/projects/mrtgsystemload.html) and your error message, you still need to update /etc/services.
Quote:
Each system runs the script from inetd, so /etc/services &
/etc/inetd.conf need to be updated.
services:
# added by dmz for mrtg
stats 7260/tcp
inetd.conf:
# added by dmz 0330 for mrtg
stats stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/mrtgsysinfo mrtgsysinfo
It's not going to know what port to be listening on unless you add the info to /etc/services (or possibly in the xinetd file as a "port = 7260" line).

SHONEYPOT(8) System Manager's Manual SHONEYPOT(8)
NAME
thpot - Tiny honeypot to setup simple (and fake) services
SYNOPSIS
thpot [service name]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the thpot command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original pro-
gram does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.
thpot is a program that enables you to fake services by configuring it to be executed through either xinetd or inetd. All the connection
attempts and sessions to simulated services are logged under /var/log/thpot.
OPTIONS
This program takes as argument the name of the service which is being simulated, it can be anyone of shell, ftp, http, mssql, smtp, pop3 or
ssh. If the service name is none of these a null response is returned (but the session is logged)
FILES
/var/log/thpot
Location of the connections attempts and sessions to the honeypot services.
/etc/thpot/thp.conf
Configuration for the honeypot
/usr/share/thpot/
Miscellaneous files and functions used by thpot
SEE ALSO
inetd.conf(5), inetd(8)
