How to enable the telnet multi login in linux

[CCW_NS]

It depends...

Has your distro installed it ?
Does your distro have it to install ?
If it's installed, is it enabled in inetd or xinetd ?

Why not just use SSH ? It's installed (and probably enabled) by default, and it's a heck of a lot more secure than telnet.

check similar entries too

# grep telnet /etc/services
telnet 23/tcp
telnet 23/udp

check the file telnet in /etc/xinetd first.then if the file is their then enable xinetd and inetd first. if the file not found then you have to install telnet or copy telnet fron other systems.
