Are you sure that inetd is actually listening on any ports?
Unless I am not mistaken one of the differences between 4.3 and 4.5 is
that inetd does, by default, not listen on ftp or telnet any longer.
Look in /etc/inetd.conf and check what ports it is listening for.

For me, running 'lsof -i| grep inetd' on 4.5 gave the following

inetd        90   root    4u  IPv4 0xc3736a40      0t0  TCP *:ftp (LISTEN)
inetd        90   root    5u  IPv4 0xc3736820      0t0  TCP *:smtp (LISTEN)

which is exactly what I would expect, since those are the only two
ports I have told inetd to listen on.
