are you aware that `telnet` is not secure and people replaced it with `ssh` during the last quarter of the 20th century? – dawud Aug 09 '13 at 10:13

Try this:
Enable telnetd in xinetd. This can be done manually by editing /etc/xinetd.conf and changing disabled = yes to disabled = no, or by using the following command: chkconfig telnetd on
Start xinetd if its not running already. /etc/init.d/xinetd start
Make sure that xinetd is started automatically at boot time chkconfig xinetd on
Or you could add an entry in /etc/rc.local file. Any command in that file is executed at the end of the bootup process. So you could put this line: /etc/init.d/telnetd start at the end of your /etc/rc.local
