Could someone please let me know how talk and ytalk are implemented.

ON my BSD/OS 2.0 initially talk worked as stock....however as I 
upon attempting ytalk I get an error such as: 

Cannot find talk daemon or some such thing.

Upon attempting newer talkd and ytalk stuff I successfully
killed my talk as it know requires requests from the remote machine..

Please outline:

1) What program and daemon is required?

2) How the daemon is implemented in things like inetd.conf etc.

3) Any success stories(of which I am sure there are somem)?


Thank you
