Re: [LI] Telnet to linux machine not working

["Aditya Deshpande" <adityad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The address in use problem could crop up if you are using dhcp and 
any of the ips in hosts.allow have already been assigned by
your server.

Little wild but still worth a shot

| when i issue telnet ws1.digitel.net, i get the banner and 
| the initial message, but no login prompt.
| 
| my hosts.allow file contains
| 
| ws1.digitel.net
| ws52.digitel.net
| ws51.digitel.net
| 
| in /var/log/messages i found this
| inetd[6798]: auth/tcp: bind: Address already in use
| 
| i badly want to enable the telnet as this is necessary for the
| linux X-terminal server , which is due for a demo next week.
