It says it's not installed. But as far as I can tell, telnet relies on inetd
and tcpd, both of which are there and apparently working, since FTP is
working fine, and I think it also relies on them. (This is from reading man
pages and poking around, so I may be mistaken here.)
Is there a separate telnet-server package that somehow got uninstalled?
Thanks for the help.
