When you say telnet, I assume you mean the default port 23 which is not
ssh.  There is no reason why that shouldn't work if you have a telnet
daemon running on the other end.  You would also be able to telnet to port
22 (ssh), but you wouldn't get anywhere cos you wouldn't be able to do the
encryption and handshaking.
