Can anyone tell me how to disable the Telnet password on a 3500XL series switch? Also, how would I set one on one that requires it. Thanks a bunch!

This is off the top of my head so it could be wrong.
line vty 0 x //where x is the last configurable port
no password

Without a password the interface is not accessible. In order to use a telnet connection to your switch you need some password or the interface is disabled. The interface is vty 0 x meanint virtual terminal 0 through x. Zero through 4 is common. You can run "sho run" to find out how many vty interfaces your running.
line con 0
transport input none
line aux 0
line vty 0 4
password (omitted)
login
!
Come to think of it, the command could be:
no password (password)
or
no login
none of that worked.
line vty 0 4
no login
login (if they need it)
set a password first if you need telnetlet set the login command
make sure you are in global configuration
login
ena
#type password
conf t
lin vty 0 4
no login
