 how do i allow my box to allow incoming telnet connection?

There is a telnet-server package in Mandrake 8.0 which must be installed
and of course if there is a firewall between ssh client and server it
must allow telnet acces.

However, telnet is insecure because authentication info is sent
unencrypted over the network. Openssh is a secure replacement 
for telnet. HTH,

you ought to use ssh (daemon is sshd) instead of telnet; however, i don't
know off hand what port that is. Either way you'll need to open a port on
your firewall if you have one, if you don't have you, your full open
already...

If you want to go the telnet route open port 23...
