How exactly do I get the "telnetd" daemon to run? I managed to get xinitd running but it won't spawn telnetd. In the YAST xinitd configuration, telnetd shows a status of "--", which indicated "locked".
What does that mean? How do I unlock it? Did I do the initial installation incorrectly? Help!
Not sure, but why would you want to run telnetd when there is sshd?
Because I'm behind a firewall and don't have sshd installed on all my other Unix systems.
Well, now sshd isn't responding to anything but the local machine. What could I have done?
Did you set up the firewall in Suse to block ports?
Have you changed the sshd.config file?
I installed some additional packages including Suse_Firewall2. Disabling that worked. One other problem I found is that Suse doesn't include a /bin/ksh, which is my default shell. I just created a soft link and pointed it at /bin/bash and that worked.
Thanks everyone!
there are really people using SuSE here? SWEET
