telnet is probably disabled. you an check /etc/inetd.conf

grep telnet inetd.conf

if its commented thats why.

You can uncomment and do inetd -c, but make sure it is not commented for security reasons, before opening up telnet.

Hemant,

please check that you have ptys entry on /etc/securettys.

Even though if it's root the one loggin in, is not recommended for security reasons.

jaime.

Hey

Another possibility in addition to having telnet disabled is that inetd died. ssh runs as its own daemon so it doesn't rely on inetd.

ps -ef | grep [i]netd

If you don't get anything, restart inetd

/usr/sbin/inetd -l

HTH;

Verify files:

-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 110592 Feb 25 2004 /usr/bin/telnet
-r-xr--r-- 1 bin bin 98304 Feb 25 2004 /usr/lbin/telnetd

Verify /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log file.

rgs,

since you are not getting even login prompt means it is disabled. Enable it by removing comments in /etc/inetd.conf for telnetd and issue inted -c; kill -HUP

Shalom,

tail -f /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

Try the log in.

I think telnet is disabled.

It is possible your firewall admin blocked telnet as well.
