Dear All,
Would you mind to help ?
[root@svr1 fc6]# yum localinstall telnet*.rpm

What's problem I had ?
You're either not connected to the Internet or your DNS servers weren't
able to resolve
mirrors.fedoraproject.org. Remember, even a
"localinstall" will try to use the various repos to resolve
requirements. If you want a completely local install:
yum localinstall --disablerepo=* name-of-RPM.rpm
And I'd think long and hard before I'd install telnet since it is
completely insecure and one of the easiest protocols to hack. If your
machine even BRUSHES up against the Internet, do NOT have telnet
installed! You're asking for trouble.
