Question... Since we are talking about telnet. I am trying to telnet into my machine
in my office. I have been doing it for
a long time now. Tonight when I do it is timing out on me. Any ideas why?? I am a
newbie so I would not even know where to
go. I am looking to be SSH on the box soon. A lot of the time I telnet to the box
off the net, so it should not be an issue.
Anyone have an IDEA???
