Telnet is now working. The flag was set at 'disable = yes' Duh. I am a bit rusty with Unix/Linux but want to get back into it.
The next hurdle was how to get into uvsh. I then remembered the users file and /etc/shells to list available shells.

Take a look at the file in xinetd.d. If it looks like the following, change disable to 'no'. { flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd log_on_failure += USERID disable = yes } -- Dave Walker ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
