utelnetd on arm linux...

Feb 03, 2006 2 Replies

I have installed utelnetd on my arm linux system. Upon starting utelnetd with the following:



utelnetd -l /bin/sh -d



I get:



telnetd: starting port: 23; interface: any; login program: /bin/sh



When I try to telnet into it from another machine with:



telnet 192.168.1.2



I get:



Trying 192.168.1.2... Connected to 192.168.1.2. Escape character is '^]'.


and then nothing but a blinking cursor which echos anything I type in.



Does anyone have a clue what is going on, or at least how to find out?

I don't know ARM or utelnetd, but I'd like to see the output of: ls -l /bin/sh

I've found utelnetd does not like symbolic links.
