Hi, My /etc/xinetd.d/telnet file is:
service telnet { flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd log_on_failure += USERID disable = no } Cheers, Ben -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Passey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 June 2003 15:28 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Help: Telnet and CVS Access We've just done this. What does your telnet file in /etc/xinetd.d look like. Regards Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Hill, Benjamin W [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 June 2003 15:20 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help: Telnet and CVS Access I have a machine that I have installed CVS and Telnet Server, but I cannot Telnet or access the CVS repository remotely from a Windows machine. Each time I try to Telnet the box I get a "Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed" I have set up the CVS repository, and on the box itself can do a: bash# export CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/repository bash# cvs login And I can authenticate, and then check out code in the repository fine. The problem is when I try to connect to the server remotely and do the same thing. I have: * disabled the firewall using "redhat-config-securitylevel" * Added the file; /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver with the contents: service cvspserver { socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root passenv = server = /usr/bin/cvs server_args = --allow-root=/cvs/repository pserver -f } (and restarted xinet.d) * checked via a netstat that there is a LISTEN for cvspserver. The server is using DHCP to obtain an IP.
