hi, my isp disables me in using ssh, so I'm forced to use telnet to remotely access my computer. I'll try to change this, but for now I want to set up telnet.
I emerged netkit-telnetd along with xinetd and added xinetd to the default runlevel. in /etc/xinetd.d/telnetd I changed diabled = yes to = no, so telnet's enabled with xinetd. now, when I access my telnetd using telnet 127.0.0.1 I can login normally, without any problems, but when I try to log in from a remote computer on my local network it says 'connection refused by foreign host'. ssh works over lan, but as I said I need telnet to control my computer remotely. am I missing something?? thanks in advance for any hints, David -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
