How do I set up my SCO unix machine to be able to Telnet into it on a port other than 23?
 
Say you want a telnetd daemon listening on port 2323.
1) in /etc/services add these 2 lines:[tt]
tenlet 2323/tcp
tenlet 2323/udp[/tt]
2) in /etc/inetd.conf add these line:[tt]
tenlet stream tcp nowait NOLUID /etc/telnetd telnetd[/tt]
3) tell inetd to reread the configuration files:[tt]
kill -1 `ps -e | awk '$NF=="inetd"{print $1}'`[/tt]

Hope This Help, PH.
