After failing to install on two different machines that were running
Windows, I realized that one machine had a bad hard-drive, and the
other bad memory. So I've collected the good parts into one machine
and installed CentOS with SME. This was the fastest install of Linux
I have every seen, 15 minutes done, configured, and running, web and
email server. It is a very secure config, no GUI -- just a server.
One problem: MySQL and Telnet can't be accessed remotely, ports not
open, allow/deny files, something. I've searched the internet and
hacked around for hours, can't get these services to work remotely.
Anyone here have experience with the SME/e-smith admin tools?
By default SME doesn't install Telnet on port 23, only ssh on port
22. So I ran a yum install for telnet, manually started it. I get a
response from port 23, but connection refused.
Mysql does come installed with SME, however local connections only. I
can run mysql client on the command line on the SME.CentOS server,
queries work fine, but not remotely.
I am using Windows Vista as a client workstation, Programmer Studio
(Whisper Technology) that requires a generic telnet server, and the
freeware version of Toad to connect to the MySQL server.
Any help to weaken the security on SME to allow remote telnet and
MySQL connections will be very much appreciated!
SME server has their own lists for their products ... just keep in
mind that since they have modified their products, information you get
that is accurate for centos may not be accurate for SME server.

I have found that with SME support, more than 60% of the standard stuff
is managed by SME itself, so it could be best to ask this on their forum?
