What's the /var/log/message and /var/log/secure in the telnet server says, right at the time you attemp to telnet to it? Make sure also you don't have firewall (ie. ip table) blocking the telnet port (23). OTOH, why do you need telnet anyway? SSH is much better and much secure. You may not want telnet after all.
