Hi, I've enabled xinetd, and toggled telnet to active in yast.

I've then tried to telnet into my machine from another one on the same network but it is saying could not open connection to the host.

Is there something else I need to enable?

I can ping between the machines

Have you allowed the telnet service in your firewall config? Why would you want telnet anyway it's not secure, can't you use SSH/SCP instead? Matthew
