Hi Thorton.
Thanks again for the quick response. I have it working now. I saw that it was
off when I ran chkconfig so knowing this I turned it on. Works fine now.
And I agree with SSH versus telnet but I use the telnet service for Packet
Radio, which transmits radio data across airways and the internet. It
normally is compressed data and as far as I know will not work with SSH. But
otherwise- I believe SSH is the way to go..
