As the last poster said, SSH is a better alternative but if you really
must use telnet:

  Look at /etc/inetd.conf and uncomment the telnet entries.  You must
then ensure that inetd starts at system bootup (man rc.conf).  Next
reboot (or after you manually start inetd) you will be able to telnet
in.

  Best wishes,
