You can delete all the inetd_enable="YES" statements in rc.conf but one. If you also have a firewall on the freebsd box you have to add rule to allow tcp port 23 in. In /etc/inetd.conf you have to uncomment the telnet line to activate the telnet server. You also need an user account other than root to login into using telnet. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Efren Bravo Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 4:24 PM To: freeBSD Subject: Start telnet server help Hi, >Have you got a line indicating >inetd_enable="YES" >in your /etc/rc.conf? Yes it's indicated, The file rc.conf is accumulative? Because inside it appears the last configuration changed with the date. The line inetd_enable="YES" is repeated every time I made a change. and $ telnet localhost works but remotely doesn't. I tried to install telnet server because I'm sat down in a PC with windowsXP and I thought to connect myself to freeBSD pc to study it more comfortable. My freeBSD version is 5.4 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"help
