["Yang Hsiung" <yhsiung@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is what I have done:

1. In my /etc/xinetd.d.telnet file, I changed the "disable" parameter
     to "no".
2. Also, the "server" is set to the path "/usr/local/v6/sbin/in.telnetd",
     which is from USAGI stable kit.
3  I started the telnetd using "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart".
4. Use "netstat -a | grep telnet", which shows

	tcp        0        0        *:telnet        *:*        LISTEN

Anything was missing?

You don't have ipv6 enabled service on the server system. Try xinetd.d (is
that right, I forget ?)

Hi,

Thanks for your kindly response.
I tried both

telnet fe80::240:5ff:fe34:d97f%eth0 -l username /*  link-local */

and

telnet fec0::1:240:5ff:fe34:d97f -l username /*  site-local */

Now, I received the "Connection refused" error. Am I missing
anything? Thanks.

Yang

Well-known issue: usage of link-local addresses in application is not
really a good choice because of missing scope.

Try to append something like %<interface> at the address, perhaps it works.
If not, configure a global or a site-local address.
