Very Computer

1. Telnet refused to my machine but all others work, help!

I am running linuxppc-1999 on a StarMax 3000/240. i
am on a cable modem.  all INET services and
otherwise work when a remote system tries to
connect but with telnet, the connection is refused
even before it gets to the login prompt. it says :

"unable to connect to remote host: connection
refused."

when i type 'in.telnetd' in the command prompt, it
says:

"in.telnetd: getpeername: socket operation on non-
socket"

how can i get telnet to work?  i have rebooted the
machine, restarted inet many times and network
too...please help...any suggestions would be
appreciated.  thanx.
