1st, we must ask the obligatory question, "Why in the world do you
want to install these horribly insecure packages???"
Seriously, the package openssh will provide similar, but much more
secure functionality:
bad | good
-------|------
rsh | ssh
rcp | scp
telnet | scp
In fact, if you install openssh, it will replace rsh/rcp with links
to ssh/rcp.
However, if you really need them, the packages are:
rsh-client || rsh-redone-client
rsh-server || rsh-redone-server
telnetd
telnet
ncftp
(there are *many* ftp servers)
To stop/start any service, look in /etc/init.d for the relevant
name. For example:
# dir /etc/init.d/*ssh*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1832 Apr 1 17:57 /etc/init.d/ssh*
So, to (stop|start|restart) the sshd daemon:
# cd /etc/init.d
# ./ssh stop
# ./ssh start
# ./ssh restart

Welcome to text-mode heaven!
