And the files (often) in /etc/xinetd.d - refered to in /etc/xinetd.conf
as "includedir".
The files in this directory, an example of one below, can be edited to
"disable" services as apposed to deleting them....

----[ start /etc/xinetd.d/telnet ]----
service telnet
{
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
        log_on_sucsess  += USERID
        log_on_failure  += USERID
        disable         = yes
}
----[ end /etc/xinetd.d/telnet ]----
	-D
