- Subject: Vista and CYGWIN telnet
Hi,
I have installed cygwin on vista, and have configured openssh and inetdutils.
I followed the readme to configure both sshd and inetd as services in windows. This step works fine.
The sshd service works a treat and I can ssh into the vista server - brilliant.
Configured inetd.conf to start both ftp and telnet.
Problem:
Ftp service work brilliantly - can log in happily.
telnet - connects to the telnet server and nothing.
Example:
gpayne@nb-slogpayne ~
$ telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
xdfgsdhgxdfm♥♥ - what ever I type is echoed on screen.
Definitely connecting to the telnet service, as soon as I stop inetd the telnet server stop listening.
I have disabled the firewall / Norton. What am I missing.
Driving me mad.
Anyone got any advice, need telnet unfortunately.
Thanks in advance
Gareth
