I TELNET the localhost in the server I am getting the error message: "CONECTION REFUSED".
and yes. the telnet is enable in the inetd.conf (Im supposed if the telnet line is not commented, then it is running, inst it?)
firewall?, well Im running a router in which software the ipforwarding is working with no problem for the http so I guess is properly configured for the telnet as well (port 23, right?).
What else should I check?, I havent done anything on the hosts.allow or deny files, does that has something to do? those files are empty.
Well, if you're getting connection refused when you telnet localhost on the server, and the telnet line is uncommented then it's one of two things: Either telnetd isn't installed, or inetd isn't running. At least that's the only possible things I can see that can go wrong. regards Anders
