Hi Dears

When i use windows(95, 98 ,2000) clients to connect the unix 4.2 server using telnet i got a message Telnedt: All Networks ports in use.

Telnedt: All Networks ports in use.

Please tell what is the cause and how can i connect to unix server using telnet with windows clients

Both system are pinging each other.
Thanks

Usually this can be fixed using the MAKEDEV command. Example: MAKEDEV pty2
this should add about 16 more devices

For more info try the man page for MAKEDEV.

*However*, I would strongly recommend installing and using SSH and disabling (or removing) the telnet daemon, if you are at all concerned about the security of your system.
