c functions to turn off open ports in linux

nmap is a network utility which gives u information about open ports on ur system. for eg

$ nmap 10.226.112.202

PORT STATE SERVICE
7/tcp open echo
13/tcp open daytime
22/tcp open ssh
23/tcp open telnet
37/tcp open time
1100/tcp open unknown

these open ports can be closed manually by editing /etc/inetd.conf file.

I want to write C functions which should close ports by running that c programs. for eg; c function should close above mentioned telnet port on 23.
