Hello Igor,

You could change the /etc/services telnet entry from:

telnet           23/tcp

to:

telnet		8000/tcp

Or (this is what I would do) add a new entry to the /etc/inetd.conf like:

mytelnet  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/telnetd    telnetd

and a line to the services like:

mytelnet	8000/tcp


And then just comment out the undesired telnet entry. This would make it
clearer to other admins later down the road. (personally choice here). 

Thats my two cents,
