Here's what I did:

Removed –d from inetd.conf file. Restarted inet daemon with kill –SIGHUP
<inetd process id>. Logged on as guest on tty2 and tty3. Issued 'talk guest
tty2' from tty3.  Talk stalled with 'checking for invitation on caller's
machine.' Got out of talk with Ctrl-C and then tried 'talk guest tty3' from
tty2. Same error. Nothing shows up in the /var/log/messages file.

Decided to shutdown and start from scratch. Same results.

Any suggestions?
