Is it running? If memory serves, the telnet server on mandrake 8 is run via xinetd, make sure it's not disabled... Do you have a fire wall installed? Or is there one anywhere between you and the firewall? If so, make sure it's allowing port 23 traffic to the server.

If you upgraded you might have both inetd and xinetd installed, maybe inetd is running and telnet is not configured there?

Does xinetd appear in the output from "ps"? 2. Does netstat show anything listening on the telnet port (23)? If the answer to 1 is "no", xinetd isn't running. If the answer to 1 is "yes" and the answer to "2" is "no", the problem is the xinetd configuration. If the answers to both are "yes", the problem lies elsewhere; maybe packet filtering (iptables), maybe something else. Although the "Connection refused" error suggests that the problem has to be at a low level. I.e. not hosts.{allow,deny}; those aren't checked until the connection has been accepted. -- Glynn Clements <glynn.clements@virgin.net> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
