Subject: Login problem with Telnetd
I enabled Telnetd
I enabled Telnetd in inetd.conf by removing the #
from the line
#telnet stream tcp nowait root
/usr/libexec/telnetdtelnetd
I tried to loggin,
i used the root/password in the server machine side
i put loggin/password but
a receive the message [ SRA login failed ]
i wonder if there is
Logging in over telnet with root is unsecure...
Log on as yourself, and then su to root...

You are not allowed to log as root using telnet or ssh. Log as normal user
then use su. And try not to use telnet. Use ssh instead.
Try to connect with an ordinary user-account.
If you need root access, use an account in the wheel-group,
and then su to root after you're connected.
I belive that direct root-login are disabled.
