Re: telnetd and banner
I don't believe setting a delay is possible.
As for /etc/issue, change /etc/inetd.conf to use a different banner page:
grep telnet /etc/inetd.conf
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/telnetd telnetd -b /etc/telnetbannerpage -TCP_DELAY
Changing the banner page is ok, but for real security you need to make sure snmp isn't responding to system info requests.
Of course allowing only ssh connections would be better.

Re: telnetd and banner
WHY? That's not a security threat as the user had to type it in in the first place! The answer is no.

SolutionWe need to make the banner file, /etc/issue, a whole lot bigger but with invisible characters; ASCII NUL's should do the job. They will not alter the dispplay but each one introduces a finite tranmission delay.
1) cp /etc/issue /etc/issue.sav
2) dd if=/dev/zero bs=1k count=1024 of=/var/tmp/nuls
3) cat /var/tmp/nuls >> /etc/issue
Now try telnet'ing to your box. Step 3 can be repeated until the delay is long enough.
We are appending to the existing /etc/issue file. Step 2 creates a 1MB file but you may find that reducing count gives you better granularity for tuning the delay.
