read 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-inetd.html
on how to enable inetd(8)

You will also need to edit /etc/inetd.conf and uncomment this line:

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

http://www.ethereal.com/docs/user-guide/ch03capturestart.html should
answer this question.
