I have just got a Sun Ultra 2 machine with Solaris 8. I connected it to my dell router, which I have been using with my windows machines without any problem. What do I need to do to access the sun machine from any of the windows machine on the local network using telnet or ssh.

If this does not work telnet daemon is not running (who set up the Sun?), enable this in /etc/inetd.conf (don't forget to send HUP Signal to inetd)
You can't login remote when CONSOLE Variable is set to /dev/console, disable this in /etc/default/login
If these hints don't help and fix "call" again
