Hi,
I am trying to setup telnet in my server, it is runnig but if I want to user ksh prompt I have to call it directly or put it in the login.cmd file. And the PATH gets wrongy! it does not see some Interix apps like "ls".
Thanks,
Luciano Morais da Silva

Hi,
I could carry the last problem out by my self, thanks anyway, but I am sure I would be helped. I have installed and started in.telnetd, but I have found some other problems:
1) All client connects starts with sh, I wish they could use ksh always, But I am still in doubt.
2) In a Client connection, everytime I try to call a win32 aplication, even cmd, if this when this app stops to accept any data it is aborted. I mean, if I type cmd in the sh prompt, as soon as it gets ready te receive data it is aborted.
Thanks alot!
Luciano Morais da Silva.

On Interix sh is the same asksh.
You can't run all Win32 applications from a telnet connection.
If you want to do that you can run the Win32 version of the Telnet server.
Refer to the Help that comes with SFU off of the start->programs->SFU menu.

1) when using the Windows tlntsvr.exe - invoke ksh using "%SFUDIR%\bin\ksh -l". This should set up PATH properly.
2) when using Interix in.telnetd, interactive win32 programs won't work because win32 C runtime libraries don't recognize the handle to the Interix pseudo tty as a valid input/output handle. So the programs think they are EOF and terminate.
The only workaround is to use file redirection so the win32 programs get their input from a file.

Personally I thought telnet was a thing of the past, information is passed unencrypted, also passwords, unless you use NTLM authentication (which by itself is not tamper-proof and can't be used from UNIX/Linux-clients).
But then again, if it's telnet you want, use the Windows version for some of your Windows tasks, and use ssh/sshd for Interix and a lot of Windows commands. Telnet listens on port 23, ssh on port 22, so they should not disturb each other.
One of the secrets -- as I see it -- in order to issue Win32 console commands on Interix, is to add them to the Korn shell script wrappers found in /usr/contrib/win32/bin.
For further instructions on these files, I posted a description in SFU/Interix -- Getting started, thread: "How To Run Java on SFU." The beauty of this approach is that you can do much of your Windows 2003 administration from a Linux box or Interix from the command line, such as adding users, resetting password and logging them off servers, etc.

Hello,
Thanks for all the information.
I chosse to use telnet since it a low cust way to access remote servers, in my case, it is easyer to do some admin tasks like coping files etc. I have tryied VNC but I think it is to slow, but if you have another option, it will be very wellcome!!
Is there any kind o effort to turn other aplications compatible with interix. For exemplo Oracle cames with some utilities for Interix?
Thanks,
Luciano Morais da Silva
