(usagi-users 01343) Re: getting telnet to run from xinetd

[Kirk Bollinger <kirk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have now gotten it to work, more or less.

here is my current config for xinetd

 default: on
# description: The telnet server serves telnet sessions; it uses \
#       unencrypted username/password pairs for authentication.
service telnet
{
        flags           = REUSE IPv6
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        #groups                 = yes
        server          = /usr/local/v6/sbin/in.telnetd
        #server         = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
        log_on_failure  += USERID
        disable         = no
        user            = root

}

it does not work form a fresh boot but if I HUP xinetd it then starts
working.


[root@localhost /root]# telnet ::1
