Package: inetutils-telnetd Version: 2:1.6-3 *** Please type your report below this line ***
"telnet localhost" works as expected whereas "telnet 127.0.0.1" and "telnet dalton" fail as follows. pe...@dalton:~$ telnet 127.0.0.1 Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused Joule is connected by an OpenVPN tunnel and "telnet joule" and "telnet 10.4.0.1" work as expected. I've spent hours checking various details including extant bug reports. I wonder whether someone can at least contradict or duplicate my observations before more time is invested. I know that telnet is vulnerable. I use it only inside my firewalled LAN. Thanks, ...
