telnet not working
 

while issuing telnet

Trying 127.0.0.1...

Telnet is insecure, and should not be used.
Use ssh instead.
However, make sure the telnet daemon is running, and the ports are open in the firewall.

use putty
 

hi,

search google for putty
and use ssl, ssl is almost same as telnet.
nowadays you dont find ppl using telnet.

@rogerkk, you mean ssh, not ssl

Yes solved it

thank u repo

Though telnet (the client) is installed by default, the daemon (telnetd was not installed)
