Hi� Luggers, As I installed/configured Telnet / FTP server in RH Linux 7.2 If I checks it by following command of processes then it is showing me that the �xinetd� service is running. And if I checks it by �nmapfe� utility the scanning is showing me that Telnet and FTP ports are open in Red color. I m going to logon as a user ROOT to LOCALHOST with its password for Telnet session it gives me following error : telnet localhost or telnet 127.0.0.1 Login : root Password : Login incorrect Connection closed by foreign host. And in FTP session when logon as a user ROOT with its password it gives me following error : ftp localhost or ftp 127.0.0.1 Login : root Password : 530 Login incorrect Login failed.
It is also not allowing me to Telnet Linux machine (192.168.0.1) from Windows machine (192.168.0.2) It gives me following error : For Telnet : Could not open a connection to 192.168.0.1 For FTP : ftp
ftp:connect:10071
ftp> But if I give ls command then it shows me �not connected� msg.
As my Configuration files are concern they are here for u people to review /etc/xinetd.conf defaults { instances = 60 log_type = SYSLOG authpriv log_on_failure = HOST } includedir /etc/xinetd.d /etc/xinetd.d/telnet service telnet { disable = no flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.xinetd log_on_failure += USERID no_access = 10.0..0.1/24 log_on_success += PID HOST EXIT access_times = 09:45-16:30 } /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftp service ftp { socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd server_args = -l -a log_on_success += DURATION USERID log_on_failure += USERID nice = 10 disable = yes } /etc/hosts.allow ALL:ALL@ALL /etc/hosts.deny (This file is Empty) But as I Telnet / FTP my Localhost by any other User then it is allowing me to connect and also gets connected. So, after reviewing this plz. Suggest me where should I make change to resolve this problem. Regards, [Ashish Desai]

Your problem boils down to the fact that it's a bad idea to let root login over the network. This is correctly disabled on your box.
PS: Use ssh instead of telnet. Use sftp/scp instead of ftp.
Hi Ashish,
First thing....
you have installed RH 7.x ... and RH has this shitty service known as ipchains or iptables which gets enabled by default unless you opt for not starting by ntsysv --level=5 --level=3 ...and disable this service..
Second.... its by default that root user is never allowd to login thru telnet or FTP ... you can directly log on to root only if you have ssh service started (well if u havent changed the conf files as to not allow root to login )
so try to login as some other system user and then su to root ...
