Re: [gentoo-user] telnet qpkg

hi! 
 
why don't you run 'emerge search telnet'? there you see some different telnet 
packages you can install... 
 
i am using 'net-misc/netkit-telnetd' (standard linux telnet client and server) 
 
cheers, 
martin 
 
 
Zitat von Dan Foster [EMAIL PROTECTED]: 
 
 Hot Diggety! Stroller was rumored to have written: 
   
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -f /usr/bin/ktelnet 
  app-crypt/krb5 * 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -f /usr/bin/ktelnetd 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ 
   
  Two questions remain: 
  - Why does app-crypt/krb5 (kerberos?) rely on what appears to be a  
  telnet app..? 
  
 It's kind of the other way around ;) 
  
 It's saying that ktelnet is a part of the krb5 ebuild. 
  
 That is, ktelnet is a special version of telnet that has been Kerberized 
 (yes, you're right, Kerberos stuff) where it passes along Kerberos tickets 
 to the local ktgt server and stuff to avoid needing to send passwords in 
 cleartext, only ticket-granting tickets (TGTs). Nifty technology, but of no 
 use if you don't have a Kerberos realm running either locally or remotely. 
  
 If you don't use Kerberos, chances are pretty good you probably don't need 
 that stuff at all and could likely safely unmerge it. 
  
  - Where has /usr/bin/ktelnetd come from, and why doesn't qpkg show me..? 
  
 Could it be /usr/sbin/ktelnetd by any chance?

I think you want the telnet-bsd ebuild for telnet.
Thank you.

(I don't use telnet to login to systems; I usually use it as a 
diagnostics
tool -- ie, telnet to a server on port 389, 110, 443, 8080, etc. as 
needed.)
That's exactly why I wanted it.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -i /usr/sbin/ktelnet
[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -i /usr/sbin/ktelnetd
I think you want to do this instead:

$ qpkg -f /usr/bin/ktelnet

From the qpkg man page:

  Package Selection:

   -f, --find-file Finds package that owns file file
Duh! That was a dumb typo of mine! That was *exactly* what I intended.

So:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -f /usr/bin/ktelnet
app-crypt/krb5 *
[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $ qpkg -f /usr/bin/ktelnetd
[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $
Two questions remain:
- Why does app-crypt/krb5 (kerberos?) rely on what appears to be a 
telnet app..?
- Where has /usr/bin/ktelnetd come from, and why doesn't qpkg show me..?

P.S. I'd highly recommend sending mail from an address other than 
'root' :-)
I think you'll find it's a virtually-hosted domain.
