Assuming that you have the telnet server installed, you need to start it (Mandrake Control Center, System tab, Services icon).

Also, I had a similar problem on the MDK PC I use at home, where I have a modem Internet connection. I looks like if you don't connect to internet, loopback port is not enabled by default, so you get the error below. I had to issue a

# ifup lo

as root, then it worked ok.
