I was trying to get telnet server up and running on my fedora 31. I
have installed telnet-server package using dnf.
systemctl list-unit-files outputs:
telnet@.service static
However, when I try to start or check status of it this is what I get:
$ systemctl status telnet@.service
Failed to get properties: Unit name telnet@.service is neither a valid
invocation ID nor unit name.
How do I start telnetd server?
I guess it's supposed to be socket-activated, i. e. do
systemctl start telnet.socket
That said, are you really sure you want a telnet server? What is it that
cannot be handled much better / more secure by SSH?
