I have used telnet before ssh came in to the market . Do you know how to hack telnet ? or break a root password without having physical access to the system ? most likely the answer will be - NO .. so what's the big deal in ssh vs. telnet ? -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Greg Golin Sent: Friday, August 25, 2006 2:12 AM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Permit root login for telnet.. Dear Arun, You do NOT want to enable root login via telnet - trust me on this one. Please tell the list what you are trying to accomplish - 99.9% chance is that whatever you are trying to do can, and should be done via ssh.
