If you are just setting it up the first time. two possible reasons are:
try chconfig telnet on
or try
telnetting using a user other than root then SU after connection. The root account is blocked by default from telnet since all passwords are transmitted in clear text.
Also check the telnet part of xinet.d .

try
log as root
ps aux | grep telnet
if it is running you could log on to localhost.
if it is not running
cd /etc/xinet.d
edit telnet
service telnet { disable = no flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd log_on_failure += USERID }
save this file
type /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
hope this will work
it is safe to use ssh than telnet because of security issues
