I'm having some problems configuring telnet using MacBSD. I'm sure this =
is a simple UNIX admin thing but since I'm new to the game I need some =
help. I can login to my MacBSD box as root or as a user without a =
problem. Upon boot up I can see the network come up and from other nodes =
on the network I have no problem pinging the MacBSD box. I can even get =
other workstations to telnet to the MacBSD box and get a login prompt. =
However, when I attempt to enter root as the user or use the user =
password that I've set up for myself it gives me a <insert user name =
here> LOGIN REFUSED FROM THIS TERMINAL message. Can anyone point me to =
the instructions to allowing user to remotely telnet in?=20
Any help would be appreciated.=20
