telnet (and a lot of other services) are started by a single
super-daemon called inetd. Comment out the line that starts with telnet
and restart inetd and it will go away.

Redhat v7.1 (and YDL v2.0 I think) have upgraded to a newer package that
does the same thing called xinetd. Here, each service is (usually) in a
separate config file in the /etc/xinetd.d directory. Find the telnet
config file and set "disabled" within it to turn it off, and restart
xinetd.

Regards,
Graham
