telnet is also wide open to the network, passing user names and passwords in the clear. ssh is a much better application, as is sftp for transferring files. Both encrypt the user name and password. That being said, on some machines, the telnet deamon is in.telnetd and on others it's just telnetd. The telnet deamon runs under either inetd or xinetd If it's xinetd, got to /etc/xinetd.d, vi the telnet startup file and set disable = no. If it's running under inetd, vi the /etc/inetd.conf file and delete the comment in front of the in.telnetd line. In either case, you have to restart inetd/xinetd by typing pkill -HUP inet on the command line. Depending on which account you are doing this from, you may have to use sudo in front of all these commands. >On the EMC machine, type : > >telnet localhost > >If you get the same "refused" message, the machine is not >serving telnet requests, and you'll have to enable the server. >I don't know enough about the way you set up your system to >advise further. > >Jon Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
