Telnet problem
 
MY platform is FC7 and I install telnet in my machine but now there some problems
when I telnet 192.168.160.178.
It is displayed:
Code:
Trying 192.168.160.178...

Connected to 192.168.160.178.

Escape character is '^]'.

getaddrinfo: localhost: Success
Name or service not known: Illegal seek
Connection closed foreign host
:confused:

But I search the answer that it may be a not trusted address now I post the content about "/etc/xinetd.d/telnet"
Code:
service telnet
{
  disable        = no
  flags = REUSE
  socket_type = stream
  wait = no
  user = root
  server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
  log_on_failure += USERID
  only_from = 192.168.160.178 127.0.0.1 192.168.161.242
}
Ps: IP that I telnet is 192.168.160.178

do you really need a telnet? much better and secure way is by using SSH. avoid using telnet.

yes,you'd better use ssh to control remote host
