Can you telnet from the local host? It has to work from the local host
first.

Okay, from the command prompt, I want you to:

# su
Password:
$ updatedb
(this could take a bit)

$ exit
# locate in.telnetd

(to make sure this file exists)

# locate telnetd

(make sure telnetd is properly installed)

Try those, and get back to me (oh, and I would like to see output - pipe
them to a file and attach them, because I want to rule out the
possibility of transcription errors).
