Hi Mike, Thank you very much for your suggestions. I came back to the telnetd issue once again and right now when I try to connect to my ppc405 embedded system I get:
Trying 129.128.107.50... Connected to ml403-mirek.pss.uk (129.128.107.50). Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. Now it seems to be that the telnet daemon runs on my ppc405 but probably something needs to be configured. I have tried to see some error messages in the /var/log/messages file but such a file does not exist on my ppc405. Does somebody have an idea what configuration is missing Best Regards Mirek >> Could somebody advice me how to start/configure TELNETTed daemon on >my >> power-pc embedded linux which uses busybox 1.4.2 . > >I do it via inetd on my ARM systems.
