1. Please, don't cross-post. If you have to send the same message to several lists, use bcc 2. Is this a machine that's on the internet? If so, you should never use telnet. Telnet transmits everything in cleartext, including passwords, so you'd have hackers in your system in about five seconds. ssh is a safe replacement. In suse 7.2 telnet is off by default. There is good reason for this. 3. If your system has been hacked, I'd say the only way to be sure you were rid of all backdoors etc. was a full reinstall. 4. When you've done the reinstall, set up a firewall *before* going live on the net. SuSEfirewall is good enough for most purposes. Anders On Wednesday 29 August 2001 23.57, Brandon Caudle wrote:
Hey Everyone, Recently, I have been unable to telnet into my machine (Suse 7.2). This is because /bin/login is missing, (I am very suspious about this) So how do I go about replacing it?
