Setting Up a Telnet Server

Setting Up a Telnet Server

Having been superseded by SSH, you will find the Telnet server installation packages under Legacy Network Server in the Add or Remove Packages dialog box. You need to select it from the Details selection because it is not one of the default selections for the package group. After it's installed, select System Settings, Server Settings, Services and enable Telnet for runlevel 5. Note your IP address while you are here (switch to root and run ifconfig).

With that done, you can now fire up your other Linux box and type telnet <your IP>. If you are unsure of your IP address, switch to root and use the ifconfig command. You are prompted to enter your username and password. The whole conversation should look like this:

[paul@susannah ~]$ telnet 10.0.0.1
Trying 10.0.0.1...
Connected to 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1)
Escape character is '^]'.

Running the w command now shows you as connecting from the external IP address.
