Hello all! With no arguments, telnet works fine and I get a login on my machine. But when I give the telnetd the paramter "-L /bin/login" (in /etc/inetd.conf) for it to use the standard login program, I only get "login: permission denied". I know /bin/login is pamified on Debian; but even commenting out everything in the pam service file for login (/etc/pam.d/login) didnīt change anything. What should I do? Why is login denying access? Please help me. TIA P.S. This happens for root and non-root users. It looks like the in.telnetd uses /usr/lib/telnetd/login as the default login program because when passing explicitely as the login program to the daemon (with "-L /usr/lib/telnetd/login") Iīm granted telnet access. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org
