text terminals via ip
 

Hi all,

At work we've got a linux box that accepts ip based connections from terminal emulation software i.e. anzio etc. and provides a text only linux session to each user.

Can anybody tell me how to go about setting this up on my home linux box? I would like to be able to connect to it from a XP machine on my home network using the anzio lite software.

Thanks in advance,

use Putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ it is a ssh/telnet client for windows to connect via SSH/telent to remote hosts. I don't recommend telnet (it is insecure as an infant), you need to run sshd (secureshell server on your linux box) in order to accept connections, plus make a hole in your firewall to accept ssh requests on tcp port 22). SSH is available as a free implementation from http://www.openssh.org

Hmmm, you make it sound so easy!

Thanks.

It is easy and there is no need to double post http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=28460
