Thanks to Mike Kail and Cian O'Sullivan.

Quoth the sage:

"most likely it means that 'telnet' is unable to acquire it's 'tli'
address.  this can sometimes be caused by killing/restarting 'inetd'
with 
'telnet' connections in TIME_WAIT.

a reboot should clear this up."

Rebooted and fixed.  One thing that may have contributed to this is that
the time was off by 80 million seconds.....also, our cfengine runs hup
inetd for some changes.  The combination was probably not the most
stable..

Thanks.
