Now before i begin, i dont want ssh, i dont care about security... i just need to know how to. 1) configure telnet to allow remote access 2) to be able to telnet control my server as root.
security is not an issue, i am a noob and this is a crash machine... so if anyone knows an article or any advice then please gimme! ^_^

Figured it out ! http://www.itp.tu-graz.ac.at/Comp/RPM/rh-9/telnet-server-0.17-25.i386.html
RH9 default install did not install telnet server, just get the rpm and install it the goto: /ect/xinetd.d/ open "telnet" & change disabled= yes to disabled= no now you can telnet from anymoachine into your linux box from any computer, i suggest a restricted user instead of root, becasue of security. SSH is an option, but almost all computers come with telnet.
