1. make sure interface is up (ping 127.0.0.1)
2. make sure you have the telnet server package installed (Mandrake Control Center)
3. make sure telenet server is up and running (ps -axl)
4. check /etc/xinetd.conf for any "ONLY_FROM" lines
5. check that /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny are empty
The last two are the least probable causes, unless you have messed up with the security scripts. What level of security are you running?

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.
