Following the suggested HOWTO, I get this: > > # /sbin/chkconfig telnet on > error reading information on service telnet: No such file or directory ---- The instructions clearly state that you would have to install telnet-server package. Since you give no indication, one can only guess at what you are trying to do and it seems less likely that you want to install and run standard telnet package on a non-standard port and more likely that you are trying to have some process/listener waiting for a connection on port 9734, in which case, my previous reply is likely to have the information you need.
