it seems your unixware is configure with tcpwrapper check /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny for any rule to confirm if this is the case.

if this is the case you may want to edit /etc/hosts.allow with and put this entry
telnetd: conecting_ip_address

Note
connecting_ip_address is your ipaddress you connectiong from.

if the above did not solve your problem you might want to use
hosts file before DNS resolution. just put an entry in your hosts file so that it uses your hosts file to do resolution.

NAME
avahi.hosts - avahi-daemon static host name file SYNOPSIS
/etc/avahi/hosts DESCRIPTION
/etc/avahi/hosts is a file which may be used to define static host name to IP address mappings for multicast DNS. This is especially useful when publishing DNS-SD services on behalf of other hosts. See avahi.service(5) for more information. The file format is similar to the one of /etc/hosts: on each line an IP address and the corresponding host name. The host names should be in FQDN form, i.e. with appended .local suffix. AUTHORS
