First make sure nothing is already listening on port 106.
As root:

/usr/sbin/lsof -i :106

if nothing is actually listening on prto 106, add the lines manually to
/etc/services.  Make sure there are not other lines with port 106 specified.

HUP xinetd and then see if you can telenet to port 106.


try adding it manually
