I dont know about the kernel, but for the telnet I can say

The package telnet-sever is contains the server, telnetd, and it will
serve you telnet. So you can login to your machine from outside.

The package telnet-client is needed, to run the command
telnet <adress> .

In MDK 8.1 there is no trouble in connecting to other systems using
the telnet client. But I believe, yet, that no one could ever make his
MDK 8.1 serve a telnet session. There is a bug out there but no one
seems to be able to solve it yet :(
