Hi Anil,
By default telnet is disabled..u need to enable it by
modifying the following
#vi /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
service telnet
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}
####
# service xinetd restart
# telnet 127.0.0.1
u cant login using root password..use any other userid
u can try the following command to see wihch ports r open
on ur box
# nmap -sS 127.0.0.1
Regards,
Peeyush Maurya
