Do you have the telnet server installed?  Is it running?  If memory 
serves, the telnet server on mandrake 8 is run via xinetd, make sure 
it's not disabled...

Do you have a fire wall installed?  Or is there one anywhere between you 
and the firewall?  If so, make sure it's allowing port 23 traffic to the 
server.
