Hi,
I just pass one machine from CentOS v 4.2 -> FC4 and I am surprised, I
have a lot of trouble getting the Telnet service running !!!?
After selecting Telnet and restarting Xinetd, The telnet service is not
available ! ( Could not open connection to host on port 23..)
If you open again services windows, I can see that Telnet service is NOT
selected !!???
Any idea what this could be ? What I am missing ?
Cheers
Telnet isn't used much anymore except in embedded systems. SSH is used in
place of telnet, rlogin and rsh. The Redhat distros install ssh by
default, the older servers are still available (they label them legacy
servers in the installer) but they aren't installed by default. When they
are installed they are disabled by default, you have to specifically
enabled them.
The easiest way to configure ssh is to use webmin, http://www.webmin.com.
Webmin has a great ssh module, it makes it very easy to set it up even if
you have never used ssh before.
