Step 3. If inetd is not running, start it:
/usr/sbin/inetd
Step 4. If inetd is running and users still cannot rlogin (or remsh or telnet)
the service may be disabled. Check /etc/inetd.conf for the following
lines:
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/telnetd telnetd
login stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/rlogind rlogind
shell stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/remshd remshd
Step 5. If these lines do not exist, or are commented out (preceded by a pound
sign, #) add them (or remove the pound signs) and restart inetd:
/usr/sbin/inetd -c
You can also use SAM to check for the status of these and related
services, and enable them if necessary: go to Networking and
Communications/Network Services.
