Telnet and Debian 2.1?
Hi, I can't get telnet working after installing Debian 2.1. It worked easily with Debian 2.0: just install netstd right after Debian installation and other PCs in the LAN were able to telnet into the Debian box. Now with Debian 2.1 the other PCs can't get connection (or it is lost immediately). What has been changed concerning telnet since 2.0? Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Risto

Telnet and telnetd are now separate packages. net/netstd_3.07-2.deb split into 10 packages: mail/vrfy net/bwnfsd net/netstd net/nfs-server net/rexec net/talk net/talkd net/telnet net/telnetd non-free/net/pcnfsd See this page for more information on changes in Debian 2.1 (slink): http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ Tom -- Try Debian GNU/Linux - it's free, it's open source, and it rocks http://www.debian.org

I think that telnet (client and server) in 2.0 was included in some base package, but has nov been moved into their own packages: telnet (client) and telnetd (server or daemon if you want). You can get them from a ftp-site, ex ftp.debian.org, preferably using 'dselect' for easy and handy package selection. -- Nils Grimsmo [EMAIL PROTECTED] --
