Then at least your host has working IPv6.

127.0.0.1 is the IPv4 loopback address
::1 is the IPv6 loopback address
An application has to support IPv6 if it needs
to be capable of listening and then accepting
connections on it..

Your inetd needs to support IPv6.
Next to that I would suggest that you check out
ssh as telnet carries traffic in plaintext.
