It sounds like one of two things:
. either you did not update your /etc/inetd.conf file to specify
that the new kerberos telnetd should be used instead of the
default OS telnetd, or
. you did not restart inetd and so the old telnetd is still being
used, or
. your principal name does not match the username on the machine
you are logging into, or
. you do not have any kerberos credentials on the telnet client end
and therefore kerberos negotiation is not taking place, or
. you are not using the kerberos telnet client.
