RTFM. You need to install the Xorg server, tools, and window manager such as KDE or Gnome in order to have a GUI front-end for your server. As for telnet, it is HIGHLY recommended that you do NOT enable telnet on todays' systems as it is very insecure. Use SSH instead. In either case, usually it is the xinetd daemon that starts these tools (including ftp, and such), which requires editing some configuration files in /etc. Read the man pages for xinetd for information on what to do for that.
