I have two ideas:
1) OS/400 did not support device naming until V4R3. If you are using
a V3R2 - V4R2 version of OS/400, you need to apply PTFs to
make your system do device naming under TELNET.
Go to http://as400service.ibm.com/ and search for "II10918"
for more info on how to enable device naming support in OS/400.
2) You may be using an old version of tn5250. The new versions of
tn5250 would specify things like this:
xt5250 env.DEVNAME=BOB01 192.168.1.10
Type "tn5250" (by itself) at a shell prompt to see what the
common options are for the version you're running. If you're
running an older version, you might solve your problem by
upgrading. If you're running a newer version, perhaps
you're specifying "-s" where xt5250 wants "env.DEVNAME"?
