Not knowing your distribution, you can still be using inetd instead of xinetd. So maybe have a look if there is a /etc/inetd.conf and comment it out. It could also been started as standalone demon, not being called by a super demon like inetd or xinetd. In that case (I doubt it) it could be started somewhere in /etc/rc.d/rc.<n>.
You can check what super demon you are currently using if you just issue a
and you will notice which of both you are using.
When commenting anything out in either config, don't forget to refresh/restart the super demon.
If you are definetly using xinetd and there is no config file containing a stanza for telnet below /etc/xinetd.d, then you might just not using telnet. Did you just try to connect with a telnet client to your server and check what happens?
Being a new user to linux i m finding it very difficult to understand what do you mean by "So maybe have a look if there is a /etc/inetd.conf and comment it out."
I guess in my case i dont want to comment it out as i m having xinetd configured in my system thanks to "ps -ef| grep inetd" command given by you.
Can any one please help me out by telling what should i do to block following services respectively.
1)Telnet
2)FTP
3)SMTP
Please dont suggest blocking the port.

lsb_release
FSG(1) FSG FSG(1)NAME
FSG - manual page for FSG lsb_release v2.0
SYNOPSIS
lsb_release [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
FSG lsb_release v2.0 prints certain LSB (Linux Standard Base) and Distribution information.
With no OPTION specified defaults to -v.
OPTIONS -v, --version
Display the version of the LSB specification against which the distribution is compliant.
-i, --id
Display the string id of the distributor.
-d, --description
Display the single line text description of the distribution.
-r, --release
Display the release number of the distribution.
-c, --codename
Display the codename according to the distribution release.
-a, --all
Display all of the above information.
-s, --short
Use short output format for information requested by other options (or version if none).
-h, --help
Display this message.
FILES
If the installation is LSB compliant, the "/etc/lsb-release" file should contain the LSB_VERSION field. The value of the field should be a
colon separated list of supported module versions indicating the LSB specification modules to which the installation is compliant. If the
installation is not compliant, the above field should not be present.
Optional fields are DISTRIB_ID, DISTRIB_RELEASE, DISTRIB_CODENAME, DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION and can be used to override information which is
parsed from the "/etc/distrib-release" file.
If the "/etc/lsb-release.d" directory exists, it is searched for filenames which are taken as additional module-version strings to add to
LSB_VERSION.
The "/etc/distrib-release" file contains a description line which is parsed to get information (especially on currently non-LSB compliant
systems).
The required line style is:
"Distributor release x.x (Codename)"
Where Distributor can be a couple of words, but then concatenated (i.e. Linux Foo BarLinux Linux -> FooBarLinux),
x.x starts with a digit followed by any non-blank characters, Codename will also be concatenated (blanks cleanup only).
release may not be used as a keyword in DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION if you don't want to override "/etc/distrib-release" data.
Notice: To support the Debian distributions' lack of information (see "/etc/debian_version" file) some have been directly added into the
lsb_release script.
EXAMPLES
If the "/etc/lsb-release" file contains:
LSB_VERSION="core-2.0-ia64:core-2.0-noarch"
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="I enjoy using my distrib"
and the "/etc/lsb-release.d" directory contains:
graphics-2.0-ia64 graphics-2.0-noarch
and the "/etc/foobar-release" file contains:
My Linux Distrib release 1.0RC4 (TryIt)
Then the results of various options will be:
$ ./lsb_release --all
LSB Version: core-2.0-ia64:core-2.0-noarch:graphics-2.0-ia64:graphics-2.0-noarch
Distributor ID: MyDistrib
Description: I enjoy using my distrib
Release: 1.0RC4
Codename: TryIt
$ ./lsb_release -a -s
1.0 MyDistrib "I enjoy using my distrib" 1.0RC4 TryIt
If the "/etc/lsb-release" file is absent (indicating this is not an LSB compliant distribution), the result will be:
$ ./lsb_release -a
LSB Version: n/a
Distributor ID: MyDistrib
Description: My Linux Distrib release 1.0RC4 (TryIt)
Release: 1.0RC4
Codename: TryIt
REPORTING BUGS
Report bugs at http://bugs.linuxbase.org. Please include a complete, self contained example that will allow the bug to be reproduced, and
say which version of lsb_release you are using.
