Maybe someone is trying to connect too fast via telnet. See this - http://justlinux.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-50050.html

Someone with telnet client (not configured kerberos properly) is trying to login. Figure out who and ask them to login with right permissions or check if they are authorized to use the system.
