Install the 'ftp' and 'telnet' packages for the commandline utilities, I think 'telnetd' for telnet server(unsure), and 'proftpd' for a pretty decent FTP server.

Maybe you have xinetd instead of inetd? Being a service wrapper, it's always been kind of optional -- I've personally never understood the use, some distros have it, some don't. On systems which don't, network daemons would just be system services.

NAME
ftpcount - show current number of connections for each proftpd server configuration SYNOPSIS
ftpcount DESCRIPTION
The ftpcount command shows the current number of connections per server and virtualhost/anonymous configuration defined in the proftpd.conf file. Connections spawned by inetd are counted separately from those created by a master proftpd standalone server. OPTIONS
-h,--help Display a short usage description, including all available options. -f,--file scoreboard-file Specify the full path to proftpd's run-time scoreboard file (configured via the ScoreboardFile directive in proftpd.conf ). If proftpd's default directory has been changed via this directive, ftpcount must either be recompiled or this option must be used in order to find proftpd's scoreboard. -S,--server server-name Specify the ServerName for a specific virtual host. If used, ftpcount will only show the session count for the given virtual host. FILES
