Has someone configured telnet server to work in redhat 7.1 . xinetd has replaced inetd with a new style configuration. How do I configure telnet and ftp to be able to login from remote machines? Is there more needed than just the xinetd.conf set up?

From my experience you need to DELETE the \etc\securetty file. Then edit (vi) the \etc\ftpuser and pet a pound sign (#) in front of root. (#root)

Let me know if that helps. James Collins
