telnet and ftp are enabled by default. if you wanna go as root . you need to commment out this line to enable telnet for root CONSOLE=/dev/console in /etc/default/login .
#CONSOLE=/dev/console
FTP just comment out root in /etc/ftpusers
However none of these are advised. you want to be a regular user and su - as needed.
