Hi Laith.said

Many many appologies for not getting back in touch faster my friend.... ive been busy with work and other stuff.

I didnt want spoon-feeding m8, i wanted to learn this myself with help from yourselves.... may i take this opportunity to thank you for your offer of help but i have now sorted the files back to their original state and telnet now work as it did originally.

Could you please post which is the best editor for these files on a windows based pc.... to ftp using flashfxp programme. Or is the flashfxp editor ok to use.... ps: i used that last time and the telnet function corrupted???

again..... many many thanks for your assistance.

Many many thanks for ALL your replies to date my friends....

To edit the conf.file i used the editor in flash fxp.... it works with all other linux conf.files i edit, without an issue ? is this OK?

I still have no telnet from my pc to the 7020. as far as i am aware, the conf.files are back to their original status but the 7020 wont connect...... says an i/o error ????

Can anyone please help with this one.....

first. i would like to reinstate telnet in its original form.ie, on port 23 as normal.

second. how do i alter the port from 23 to another port for security. Please use laymans terms for those of us less literate in the use of linux

and lastly. can i use flashfxp to edit the script files in linux ?

Thank you again laith.said I have got all that.... thank you.

I now have a problem of telnet failing to connect at all! All the files (script files) are as they were but telnet just WILL NOT connect.

DCC error text says....
Error 10057 function Send Socket is not connected.

ftp connects but telnet will not connect at all. a file appears to have been corrupted.... if you can tell me how to test further and or remidy this, i wiuld be really grateful

once again... many thanks for all your help

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd -p 2323

and

Zitat

the first token ("telnet") refers to the port. simply change it to a number like "1234" (for port 1234).

I have done both in the etc/inetd.conf file....

from.....

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd

to.....

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd -p 3838

and to.....

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd -p3838 (no spaces)

and then .....

3838 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd

As instructed.... telnet will not connect in any of these cases....

Could you pllease explain exactly how to alter which cfg file to make this work please?

kind reegards

Edit: Also I have returned the file (inetd.conf) to its original text and now telnet will not connect at all????

Thank you, as always, perfection
