My VPN server listens on 1194 (the default) but also accepts proxied connections via the Apache server running on port 80. So when I'm stuck on one of those 80-only nets, I can just route everything through the vpn (I have a script to do that) and have complete freedom.
Since I set this configuration up, I've encountered one network that proxied port 80 and thus interfered with proxying my VPN. Fortunately, that net allowed 1194 so I was able to work through that route.
Of course, this assumes that you're in a position to set up a server on a static IP address.

hi robb ... just enable extra-devel and goto app manager, search for telnet, u will find client and server. Install the client one.

the busybox that comes with maemo on n900 is rather lacking in utils, I nabbed one from an arm linux based NAS I have, it runs fine and adds a load of stuff like telnet and colour ls. However the other answers in this thread are of more use
