We have no "telnet server", per se, as this makes little sense for the
eCos world.
Exactly what were you wanting to do with it?

Many embedded devices have character mode command interfaces
for status/control through "console" serial ports. The same
interfaces work quite well via telnet. E.g. you telnet into a
router or printer or whatever to configure it instead of going
the web-page route. I can manage a usable telnet session on my
PalmPilot. Trying to do web stuff is generally pretty futile.

Agreed. For this level of usage, the telnet code in RedBoot is
possibly sufficient or certainly a starting point.
If the desired usage is more complex, e.g. a stand-alone server
which "runs tasks", etc [which I expect is what the original query
was for], we don't really have such a thing for eCos, simply because
it doesn't make sense in the environment we target.
[Actually, RedBoot could be considered such a beast, but that is
another matter :-)]
