I may sound really damn but I need help.
I followed these steps to setup telnet on a 2800 series router:
Conf t
line vty 0 15
login auth default
password <password>
I have tried doing it over and over but nothing has worked so far. I keep getting an error 'password required but not set'
What do I need to do? Does this have anything to do with our authentication method? Please help!

how about just giving "login" rather than "login auth default"

It certainly does matter depending on the authentication method that you use. The use of login authentication implies that you are using AAA. If so could you post the aaa configuration? If you are not using AAA then can you provide some additional detail about how the router is configured relative to authentication.
