    The only thing I didn't try guys was to use root. Which I aint gonna do. telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl brings up bash error, "telnet command not found".

    Copying and pasting into address bar brings up you tube video. Tried just typing in telnet only in terminal. Bash brought back command not found error. What can I say? No sudo in Antix. Its Debian. Not Ubuntu. And I aint gonna use root to see if it works in root user mode. It is what it is.

    May not work in AntiX 8, but I got it to work in Mint 6 Fluxbox RC 1. Which is based on Ubuntu. Go figure.
