Re: [gentoo-user] Cannot telnet to Gentoo box... how do I get this to go?

[Murray Shields]

Thanks to all who responded to my questions - it is now working a treat. 
Whilst they were all helpful and put me in the right direction this post 
coupled with another from Jerry McBride got it done.

Thanks!

Hi All,

I cannot telnet into my Gentoo box from a remote machine ("connection 
refused"). It's a machine on my local lan protected from the world by a 
firewall on a separate gateway machine, so security is somewhat of a 
non-issue.

I installed netkit-telnetd but still no joy.. Do I need to activate it 
somehow?

Or am I barking up th wrong tree?

Thanks,

Muzza

delete string "only_from = localhost" in your /etc/xinetd.conf
change "disable = yes" to "disable = no" in your /etc/xinetd.d/telnetd
and start/restart xinetd : /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
don't forget to enable xinetd on startup :
rc-update xinetd default
