unable to connect to Yellow Dog Linux machine through telnet

[yellowdog-general@lists.terrasoftsolutions.com]

How do I enable a yellow dog Linux machine to accept telnet requests?  When
connecting to the machine the message "Could not open a connection to host
on port 23 : Connect failed"

Thank You.
