 |
|
Hi,
I have trouble delivering these old-style non secure services from my laptop. They are convenient, thus I wanto be able to run them at need, when I know I am in a secure intranet.
I have:
| Code: |
* net-ftp/netkit-ftpd
Latest version available: 0.17-r8
Latest version installed: 0.17-r8
* net-misc/netkit-telnetd
Latest version available: 0.17-r10
Latest version installed: 0.17-r10
|
This should be really the old-school stuff which always worked. I can access telnet from localhost but not from remote, ftp not even that.
xined.d/ftp looks like:
| Code: |
service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/bin/ftpd -l
disable = no
}
|
Which means it is enabled, right? To disable it, disable=yes
while telnet is configured like:
| Code: |
service telnet
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}
|
I have no entries for these services in /etc/pam.d though
Any ideas? thanks, riccardo
Riccardo

shameless bump  if it were PAM, shouldn't I find a file installed to modifiy it? If there is no description for pam, does it mean the service is blocked or free? I suppose the latter.

What message do you get when you try to connect?
Do you have a firewall?
Have you looked in the logs (/var/log/)? |
