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've just tried to go thru the same, and my default (10.1) xinetd config does not have a telnet config. I would check /var/log/messages and see if xinetd does actually set up for telnet. If not, I would check if your system has got telnetd installed. Firewall - check that the server machine allows inbound tcp traffic on port 23.
