Either you're trying to log in as root (don't do that, telnet sends
passwords unencrypted, so everyone with a packet sniffer can see your root
password), or you've entered a wrong password.
If you need to log in as root, either log in as a user and then do "su -",
or use ssh. (I'd strongly recommend using ssh - it encrypts passwords and
the whole session).
