I just tried it to connect via SSH to the Linux machine on the slave and it works without any worries. I think I might leave Telnet out for now. FYI the file is under /etc/xinetd.d/telnet . What about ftp, send mail etc..., is there a special file for those for me to enabled them ? I think if I get my hands on the Linux Bible a lot of my basic questions will be answered from there. I plan to get one when I get RH 8.0 . But for now any feedback I get is greatly appreciated.
