Very simple. "telnet cygwinmachinename" at the prompt. :-)

Oh, you meant to ask "how do I set up a telnet or ssh daemon on Cygwin"?
Again, simple: install the corresponding package (inetutils for telnet,
openssh for sshd), then read the Cygwin-specific README (found in
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/<packagename>.README) for instructions. After that,
just make sure your Cygwin machine is visible on the network, and run the
above command.
