I know this goes against all security measures, but I want to add a telnet server as a backup on my Trustix 3.0 box. This is because SSH has died on me in the past (and I still don't know why) and I can't get in otherwise to restart it remotely -- I have to ask my ISP to reboot the machine. So I want telnet available as a backup option.
If I remember from my Trustix 1.5 days, in.telnetd was available through the xinetd package. However, I installed that and don't see an entry for telnet, or see the /usr/sbin/in.telnetd file. Is this not available through swup and I have to manually install it? If so, where should I get it? On the initial problem with SSH -- I don't see anything in the logs (/var/log/messages, /var/log/secure) to indicate why it had died. Are there any other places I should check to see what happened to SSH? Thanks. _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
