Hello Ross:
1. The output of the netstat command included the following:
tcp 0 0 *:telnet *:* LISTEN
1940/xinetd
What does this mean?
2. The xinetd.conf file is quite short and does NOT contain any reference to
telnet. However there IS a telnet file in /etc/xinetd.d that contains this
line (among others):
disable = no
Thanks,
Billy
