-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On my slackware 9.1 system, edit /etc/inetd.conf. In there, find a line like the following: telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd If there is a "#" in front of this line, then remove the "#". Then send inetd a hup by doing: killall -HUP inetd , and you should be set. As for setting up everything else, you'll want to read the docs on each program you want to setup.
