I dont know why, but telnet got installed in my archlinux, and i cant disable it, i edited /etc/xinet.d/telnet:
#/etc/xinet.d/telnet
service telnet
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = yes
}
Look that DISABLE = yes.
After this i restarted xinitd, sudo /etc/rc.d/xinetd restart, but nmap still says that telnet is open.
Also, telnet is not set at rc.conf.
Im running out of ideas...

Hello B4RR13N705!
Is there any related in your /etc/hosts.allow or /etc/hosts.deny ?

If nothing else you can at least set an iptables rule to block port 23. You can also do as djszapi suggested and add to your hosts.* files.

I think the correct syntax is "disabled = yes".
In love I believe and in Linux I trust

You can remove telnet by uninstalling the inetutils package. Note that this package also includes talk, rsh, rlogin, rexec, and ftpd so make sure you don't need them. Although note that some security people (http://www.auscert.org.au/5816) say that these "r" programs are not very safe because like telnet they transmit data unencrypted, so it's not a bad idea to remove them if they are not needed. I uninstalled the inetutils package without any issues.

Pacman has to ability to tell what owns the file do
pacman -Qo /folder/package-file
and pacman will tell what program installed it.
