Also, have you added/amended the line in inetd.conf: # # Internet server configuration database # # @(#)inetd.conf 5.4 (Berkeley) 6/30/90 # telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/tcpd telnetd The TCP wrapper will not run if you don't tell inetd to run it. After changing this file, be sure to send a -HUP to inetd.
