What specifically do you want to do with telnet? If you are hooked up to a
network, installed telnet during the linux install and have your machine
properly hooked up to the network (correct IP address, etc) then there
isn't much to telnet, man telent should suffice.
all you need to do is type
telnet machinename (or IP address)
and your machine should log into the machine you want to telnet to, and
give a login prompt.
If you want to telnet to your linux box from some other machine, the same
applies (provided the telnetd is running on your linux box).
What else do you need to know?
