Hi

I am having two PC's at my home in network.Both the PC's are installed with Windows XP as host OS.Out of which I have installed RHEL 5 on Vmware as a guest OS in PC1.Now i want to connect to the PC1 guest OS from PC2 using telnet.

Is there any possibility to do this.If so how can I do that.

first off all configure ur telnet service in that pc which contain redhat
open the file vi /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
at last there is a line disable = yes
make it no
then restart the service xinetd restart
then open the file vi /etc/hosts
make the entry of another PC. like
IP ADDRESS HOST NAME
it will work

Hi Prem,

I am not having the file 'telnet' in the path you have given.
I am having the following files in the path /etc/xinetd.d/:

cvs eklogin ekrb5-telnet gssftp klogin krb5-telnet kshell ktalk rsync


Now which file I have to change.
