Howdy - You are trying to telnet to the MySQL server.
3306 is the MySQL Server default port, not the telnet port. If you are trying to run the MySQL client, then: 1) telnet mysqlserverhostname 2) run the Mysql client within your telnet session (mysql -uroot -proot, for example) If you are trying to access the MySql server programatically, then you need to have your code go the libmysqlclient or whatever library and use the appropriate API.
