It it my understanding that by default, the Telnet server is *not* installed as a part of RH 9.0 -- only a Telnet client. Did you explicitly install the Telnet server when you installed RH 9.0? Does netstat show a process listening on TCP 23? -----Original Message----- From: Go, Jeffrey [mailto:jeffrey.go@xxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 1:20 PM To: 'redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx' Subject: Telnet Hi all, I am having an issue telnetting to my RH 9 server. It has the right IP, pingable and doing a chkconfig shows the telnet is on. Running a ntsysv shows me the same. Doing an rpm -qa shows me one telnet package installed. Should a telnet server be installed as well? thanks -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
