This is either a network issue or a routing issue on your local host. Run netstat -rn to see if your route table on your local host is set correctly.

what are all the packages you installed in your server? telnet and telnet-server must be there.
what your /etc/xinetd.d/telnet file says

disable=yes or no

It should be no.
There must be two more files. (ekrb5-telnet and krb5-telnet) Both the files should contain disable=no. Then enable the telnet service thorugh "ntsysv" Restart the xinetd service. Then you can access even with the root privilege. All these things are only for RHEL 5.series

first time :
connect to address 10.0.0.100 : No route to host
beauce the telnet port disable

i enable it ,
but after that Erro is connection ref
connect to address 10.0.0.100 : connection refused

i don't know where the problem

please help me do config this serveces

write me steps to config the telnet serves

with my respect & best wihes

thanks sooooo mach for UR help

login into the server. And give me the output of "rpm -qa |grep -i telnet*" command. And also post the content of the /etc/xinetd.d/telnet file. I hope your network is ok. Can you ping to your server.
Hey, are you trying to login with the root user. If so put pts/1, pts/2, pts/3,pts/4 and pts/5 in the file /etc/securetty. It should be as follows

[root@ongc ~]# cat /etc/securetty
console
vc/1
vc/2
vc/3
vc/4
vc/5
vc/6
vc/7
vc/8
vc/9
vc/10
vc/11
tty1
tty2
tty3
tty4
tty5
tty6
tty7
tty8
tty9
tty10
tty11
pts/1
pts/2
pts/3
pts/4
pts/5

Check /etc/xinetd.d/telnet file.. Make sure, "disable=No" is set.

restart xinetd services..

This may be a stupid question, but as insecure as telnet is, why would you want to use it over ssh?
