Michael, The omnibackup program should have it's own daemon.
Failing that, when telnetting to a machine (which is bad as telnet is insecure), you should be able to login as a normal user and SU to root. How ever, it would be better if you used SSH, which is basically an encrypted telnet protocol (in simple terms) Jason Clarke ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Watts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 1:28 PM Subject: Allow root to telnet Hi, I am having trouble with a few services and want to allow root to telnet to a Debian 2.2r5 system for testing purposes, but can not find the way to allow this to happen. I have had a look through the man pages, and looked into /etc/securetty but get stuck there. Do I have to add an entry for telnet to securetty to allow root to login that way? Or is it done elsewhere?? Also, how would I allow telnet to accessed on more than one port at a time. I may need to allow it on port 23 and 5555(omniback backup software port), but can only seem to allow one or the other, not both. How can I allow both 23 and 5555 to accept telnet? Any answers would be better than none. Thanks Mike W This email is confidential and may contain legally privileged information.
