Just install the packages with the servers. In the latest version they
are openssh-server and telnetd (or another package providing
telnet-server). This may be different in previous versions, but you can
find out packages with 'apt-cache search telnet' or a similar command.

Note, however, that telnet is quite unsecure as it transmits passwords
in cleartext. ssh is better, but old versions of both may have security
problems. If you are going to have services running on your machine,
it's highly recommended to upgrade to the latest stable version, Debian
5.0 because this version gets security fixes, unlike your ancient version.

You need to run telnet daemon (telnetd).

In lenny (Debian 5.0), inetutils-telnetd, krb5-telnetd, telnetd, and
telnetd-ssl seems to provide such.

I have no idea what package offer telnetd in Debian GNU/Linux 3.1
(a.k.a. sarge, two before current stable release).  I bet for simple
telnetd.

Unless you have special reason, you should use current stable release.
Once you get to understans basics, you can play with old ones as hobby.
They are still available at http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/

I think learning some basics should help you.

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/index.en.html

Most of Inquiry are answered or hinted in there.

You need a telnet deamon on your linux machine. Try

apt-get install telnetd

Hope the package is the same with sarge. On Lenny, apt-get search has:

telnet - the telnet client (you need that to connect to other machine)
telnetd - the telnet server (you need this to give other machines access to 
your server)

Regards,

   Hartwig

Inquiry:How to enable Telnet SSH on my Debian 3.1 server?

2009-11-15 Thread John O Laoi
On many systems you have to use inetd to start telnetd.

On one system, a slax system , I think, I had to add an entry to
the configuration file /etc/inetd.conf, and then restart inetd, even
after installing telnetd.

I don't have the exact entry, but google would tell you
