[CentOS] telnet isssue

2008-12-07 Thread Indunil Jayasooriya
Hi team ,

We are runnig  a system on CentOS 4.5 where we use a testing ERP
system. Users have to login to it with telnet. When it reches about 60
telnet users, the remaing users will NOT be able to login.

Hardware is , HP Pentium 4 Server with 4 Gb RAM .

Pls Note we used the same system on a lower Machine with Redhat EL 3
until yesterday. But , it worked fine. @ that time, more than 100
users logined with telnet.

Now, only it gves such error even when we have better Hardware and Software.

Any ideas?

What does the client see that can not log in via telnet?  What does 
/var/log/messages say when additional users attempt to log in?

Look at /etc/xinetd.conf.  In this file, you will find an entry for
instances.  On CentOS and RHEL, telnet is launched by xinetd and is
governed by the instances limit in the /etc/xinetd.conf file.  Change
the limit and use service xinetd reload to reload the config file.

Cheers,

Ian

Hi everyone,

By Now, I have solved this issue.

yes,  /etc/xinetd.conf is the file. Below Doc helped me
