duh!
I am sorry to have previously posted question about telnet server.
I should have tried to correct it by myself before crying here...
My copy of Mandrake Linux 7.2 doen't install the telnet server by default.
I just installed the proper RPM package ( telnet server (...).rpm from the
install CD ) ...
The point is that I did not know it was in a package....
I am now able to telnet...
Hey is this mailing list for newbies ?
