Missing in.telnetd?

[wildbillnj1975]

I'm trying to get a telnet server running (YEAH, I KNOW ABOUT THE RISKS, AND ABOUT SSH! I WILL USE TELNET AT MY OWN RISK!).

Just did a clean install of dapper drake, and there is no in.telnetd in /sbin or /usr/sbin - so, my telnetd line in /etc/inetd.conf doesn't work.

I don't see any package in Synaptic Package Manager that contains in.telnetd

What am I missing? ](*,)

Normally, by default there is no telnet client or server installed ( I think; maybe
there is a client). Which telnetd package did you install, if any? I see several in my
package list. The one named simply telnetd contains an in.telnetd.
