Mike,
Great to hear that. You can also do 'man usertty' maybe that will help you
the best as I can to your problem.
Second, to your telnetd problem: Thats an attribute problem, You can solve
it by typing:
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
do lsattr /usr/bin/in.telnetd to get the file attributes. man lsattr for
more information.
if there are ani +i attribute or something like that you have to change the
file attribute by the chattr command (i.e. chattr -i <file>). man chattr
for more information and options.
Thats the way to solve the telnet daemon problem.
Hope this helped.
