getting a FTP & Telnet server up.

[godspaz]

http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/confused.gifI'm fairly new to the linux scene yet I am able to get things going and stuff. I have apache up and running just fine, but I would like to get a ftp/telnet server up so I can work/manage it from school. What do I use to do this? Is this a samba thing or can apache do this also? Any help is greatly appreciated. http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/smile.gif

You have to run a telnet server and a ftp server, this has nothing to do with samba and apache. Rather go for an ssh server (secure telnet) and proftp (as opposed to wu-ftp).

yes, as VRay
said, consider SSH instead of telnet, using OpenSSH with OpenSSL, you can have a more secure connection, wanna to install? try to follow the quick guide at http://www.fandelem.com/nhf-9.html ! It's so helpful and keep you away from trouble http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif
