how to restart the telnet daemon in Redhat 5 Update 3. I am not able to find the path
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart
/etc/init.d/inetd restart
Check that the telnet lines are active in /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf and that the telnetd rpm is installed.
I can't find any telnet services running. there is no /etc/inetd.conf dir.
Do I have to install telnetd rpm. How can I do that. The linux version I am running is Redhat 5 Update 3.
Sorry my mistake, for Linux you need to look for file: /etc/xinetd.d/telnetd.
To check to see if telnetd is installed run:
# rpm -q telnetd
If it is installed you will get telnetd followed by a version number in response.
thanks.
