Here is an interesting problem, I seen it once before on a minimal 6.4 install I did, and a friend of mine is getting the same error with 7.1 install Default w/ Office while running SSH as well.

When trying to telnet into the computer ya get

telneted: getnameinfo. connection to host lost

What could the problem be, I have searched the SDB, List Archive and Google and yet to find anything.

Maybe you only need to search in YOU ? For the telnetd problem on 7.1, you should install the nkitserv update or configure reverse lookups of all your hosts correct. I don't know how you can get this error message with ssh, you can only get it if there is no ssh daemon running. So start the ssh daemon.

It is incredibly powerful, gives terse, cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
