1. Check your ipfw rules to make sure that the firewall setup will not
   block incoming telnet or ftp connections.
2. Edit /etc/rc.conf and enable inetd (if it isn't enabled already).
3. Edit /etc/inetd.conf and uncomment ftp & telnet services.
4. Start (or restart, if it's already running) inetd.

Done :)
