1. Don't use telnet. Use ssh instead - it's more secure. However, if you must use telnet... 2. Check you have installed the telnet daemon package (telnetd?) 3. Check you have enabled inetd in YaST 4. Check you have enabled telnet in /etc/inetd.conf 5. Check you have allowed telnet connections through if you are running a firewall (e.g. SuSEfirewall) Still stuck? Post again, giving us more details - what is the exact error message?

What you are trying to do is what you are doing wrong. Don't use telnet over the internet. Use ssh instead. It uses encryption. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: http://www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris Registered Linux user 231871 God said, I AM that I AM.
