1. Yeah setup a talnet server and with the muds....
2. Do NOT use telnet. It is a very insecure protocol, anyone on the network can see the traffic, including logon names and passwords. This would allow anyone to break into your machine.
3. Why not? Most of MUDs are open-source, you might find sources of your favorite MUD and look how it works. Most probably it is written in C and uses sockets to communicate with clients, so you'll need the basic knowledge of these items. I used to develop and host a little MUD in old days, you're welcome to ask me if you have questions.
