 |
|
I installed successfully Gentoo 1.4 (from the hidden stage1) and everything went well. It's been almost 2 weeks now, i have X, KDE, Gnome, etc.. installed.
My problem, i need to access my company's server by telnet (i know, i know, they should use SSH... if they did i would not have this problem). But i don't seem to have a telnet client executable.
root@lp root # telnet
bash: telnet: command not found
when i try a find
root@lp root # find / -name "telnet"
/var/log/telnet
I what package can i find telnet? Isn't it supposed to be included in the system? I don't recall installing it with my Gentoo 1.2 installation...
Please help!
Thanks |

It's not always this easy to find package x to install y, but in this case it is.

 Stupid me!!!
I tried this command but did not read the packages descriptions correctly, i though the net-misc/netkit-telnetd package was just for the telnet daemon...
Wow, i'm glad i posted that in the newbies forum because that is where it belong!
Thanks for the *very* fast reply. |
