You cannot use root to login with telnet. Its disabled by default for
security reasons.

I have a question. Is there some configuration that I need to make in
order to telnet in to my Linux box. I have a static ip, and i can log on
locally. I have the gateway configured. I get the log in thru telnet and
enter root and then password. Everytime I get incorrect login I know this
is not correct because i can log in locally. Can i use root to log in? I
very new to Linux and Debian and need some advice.
Thanks in advance
