Telnetd not in distribution?

I am hoping somebody will confirm my theory.  

Suse 8.1 distribution does not come with the
in.telnetd daemon installed or as an option for
install.

I uncommented the line in inetd.conf to allow telnetd
to work and yet it still does not.  I then read the
/var/log/messages file and saw the following entry
whenever I tried to telnet to my machine:

connect from 127.0.0.1
error:  cannot execute /usr/sbin/in.telnetd: No such
file or command.

Sure enough the in.telnetd exe does not exist anywhere
on my machine.

I seached the Yast Software Module and did not see
telnetd or in.telnetd as an option for install. 
Therefore I am assuming that it is no longer
distributed?

Please confirm.  Thanks.
