I am going through the asterisk definite guide and I followed the manager guide http://www.asteriskdocs.org/en/3rd_Edition/asterisk-book-html/asterisk-book.html#AMI_id269468

This is my manager.conf file. I am using Asterisk-1.8

    ; Asterisk Call Management support
    ; By default asterisk will listen on localhost only. 

      [general]
      enabled = yes
      webenabled = yes
      port = 5038
      bindaddr = 127.0.0.1


      [hello]
      secret=world

    ; No access is allowed by default.
    ; To set a password, create a file in /etc/asterisk/manager.d
    ; use creative permission games to allow other serivces to create their own files
    #include "manager.d/*.conf"

Below is my log file. After using sudo telnet 127.0.0.1 5038 and providing action,username,secret I am getting the following output

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Asterisk Call Manager/1.1
Action:Login
Username:hello
Secret:world
Connection closed by foreign host

Below is my log file:

[Jun  7 22:55:44] VERBOSE[5328] config.c:   == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/logger.conf': [Jun  7 22:55:44] DEBUG[5328] config.c: Parsing /etc/asterisk/logger.conf

[Jun  7 22:56:40] VERBOSE[5533] manager.c:   == Client from 127.0.0.1, failed to authenticate in 30 seconds

[Jun  7 22:56:40] VERBOSE[5533] manager.c:   == Connect attempt from '127.0.0.1' unable to authenticate

And I am entering the commands(Action,username,Secret) before 30 seconds.I asked in Asterisk forum and they said to copy paste the Action,Username,Secret.Tried that but still not working

Your test configuration is sound. You have to hit enter "twice" after secret or it will timeout waiting for an Enter by itself. Here is a reference link All command packets are closed with two carriage returns. This article is for Asterisk 1.6 but the same still applies for later versions.
