You could always just set up an alternative port with your standard 
in.telnetd daemon listening via inetd on any port that is not 
normally used or allocated. I could not suggest a suitable port.. But 
it should not be a huge problem.. Then just make sure that whoever is 
telnetting to your server knows the right port.
