Why are you telling him to install a telnetd ??
He's trying to connect to a port using telnet (client) to see if a server
is listening on it.

I doubt by the way if a missing package is the issue.
Please check first if there is a server listening on tcp 4965
netstat -ltpn | grep 4965

the output should show you which application is listening on tcp/4965
if there no output, there's nothing listening and you should fix your
application first (maybe it's not started ?).

If there's something listening on tcp/4965 you can try to use
telnet localhost 4965

to see if you can connect
or use
telnet ip.nu.mb.er 4965

if the application is only listening on a single ip.
use
iptables -L -vnx | grep 4965
to see if theres a firewall rule blocking it (or accepting) if you have
the firewall active (do you?)

Please let us knwo the outcome of these commands

    Regards,

    Michel
