I'll take a crack at this one.  I have never set up a console port to do a
reverse telnet, and the link on CCO says the console port doesn't have
reverse telnet capability.  Not sure what you are trying to do, but you can
use the Aux port instead.  Here is some info I found:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/76/9.html

""The console port lacks reverse telnet capability. If the modem loses its
stored initialization string, the only remedy is to physically disconnect
the modem from the router and attach it to another device (such as an AUX
port or a PC) to reinitialize. If a modem on an AUX port loses its
initialization string, you can use reverse telnet remotely to correct the
problem. ""

""To establish a reverse telnet connection, issue the following command:
telnet x.x.x.x 2yyy or [2000+yyy]
The x.x.x.x represents the IP address of any up/up interface on the Cisco
router (for example, an Ethernet or Loopback) and yyy is the line number to
which you want to connect. If the TTY line has already been configured, you
can issue the telnet command from anywhere on the network that can ping the
x.x.x.x interface.
Keep in mind that the AUX port of any router is the last async line number +
1. You can use the show line or show line aux 0 command to see which line
number this is. ""
