Hello,

I am using Linux Fedora core 4. I want to use Telnet in place of SSH. Now I want to install Telnet server on this Linux Server. I downloaded telnet-server-0.17-35.i386.rpm file and install and received the errors as follows:
[root@SaigonBank sources]# rpm -i telnet-server-0.17-35.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
xinetd is needed by telnet-server-0.17-35.i386

What does it mean and what should i do next?

Thanks

Vunguyen

use rpm -ivh --aid <rpm-package.rpm>
--aid option will also install the dependent packages.

Why don't you want to use SSH? I assume you know anyone sniffing your traffic will see both usernames and passwords, and that even switched networks are vulnerable to sniffing.

you can install telnet server using yum facility..for that u have to first install yum on your pc and then run following command

#yum install telenet-server

This command will automatically install telnet-server from internet and also intall dependancies..

But It is preferable that u go for SSH..
