  Presumably this means that to telnet out would be to violate the 
current security policy of the network you're on.  That gives you three 
basic options:

1.  Try to get the policy changed.  We cannot help you with this.

2.  Move to a different network.  We cannot really help you with this.

3.  Try to circumvent the mechanisms which enforce the current policy.
  We don't know what those mechanisms are; if we *could* help you with 
this, we probably *wouldn't*.  [Maybe this wasn't obvious.]
