Chkconfig Telnet On Error Reading Information
Contents |
The telnet protocol uses unencrypted network communication, which means that
Telnet No Such File Or Directory
data from the login session, including passwords and all chkconfig error reading information on service other information transmitted during the session, can be stolen by eavesdroppers on the network. The telnet protocol is also subject to man-in-the-middle attacks. Mitigation: If an enabled telnet daemon is configured to only allow encrypted sessions, such as with Kerberos or the use of encrypted network tunnels, the risk of exposing sensitive information is mitigated.

As telnet is inherently unsecure because everything is sent in plain text, All distros come with telnet disabled by default, and in place they use ssh ssh is far more secure, is SECURE, and can be used to make transfers also. to download a free client for ssh, get PuTTY: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html but, if you insist in use telnet, then type this command as root: chkconfig telnet on and it should begin to answer you on port 23 BTW: ssh port is the 22 go, made yourself a ssh fan. it's safe, compress the data so is faster, and is simple. 0 Message Author Comment by:Adamleven2002-11-30 Redimido, I tried chkconfig telnet on and got Error reading information on service telnet: no such file or directory. 0 LVL 19 Overall: Level 19 Linux Networking 16 Message Expert Comment by:Redimido2002-11-30 Sorry, it is chkconfig --level 1235 telnet on 0 Message Author Comment by:Adam
