If you're running telnet with inetd, you just need to make a simple
change to inetd.conf. Say your current telnetd line looks like this:
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/telnetd telnetd
The first word in the line says "telnet" but what that really means
is that /etc/services is consulted for what port/protocol "telnet"
uses. If you look at /etc/services you'll see something like this:
telnet 23/tcp
If you changed that number to 24 and restarted inetd, you'd have inetd
listening for telnet connections on port 24.
