this is an already ESTABLISHED telnet connection FROM your PC...

1) Install the telnet-server PACKAGE!!!!!
2) run "chkconfig telnet on"
3) If you use /etc/hosts.deny (ALL:ALL), then add telnetd to your access
list!!!!

And SERIOUSLY think to use openssh instead of telnet!!!!

Do you have openssh-server installed!?!!! Run these two commands:

# chkconfig sshd on
# service start sshd

If it doesn't work, look in /var/log/message, /var/log/secure or run the
ssh server in debug mode (sshd -d -v)

And can you know if such or such package is installed? With the rpm
command, eg. "rpm -q openssh-server", "rpm -qa | grep telnet", etc ...
