Re: telnetd won't run

Hello,

Try starting up the GUI with startx and run telnet from terminal from the GUI that is what worked for me. I had the same problem as you was not working from the CLI.

Sincerely,

John

Txh for feedback. Guess you are right about everything! But I still don't know how to fix this. Who is listening on port 23, telnetd? If it is, why does it close all connections?

I tried: /etc/xinet.d/telnet restart didn't help
Checked structure of this file and it's same like some I found on web.
What can I try next?
