We received a Fedora installed, we couldn't able to do any
telnet/ftp/ssh onto that machine, also I couldn't able to find any
telnet file on my /etc/init.d Directory, how can I enable these
services?.

I verified my firewall setting by "iptables -L" command?. Any
suggestions apprecited.

telnet and ftp are usually started by xinetd, check in /etc/xinetd.d
if the mentioned telnet/ftp files have the 'disabled=yes' option and
enable them (if you really want to use telnet/ftp).
SSH should be enable by default, but maybe it isn't.
chkconfig sshd on should do the trick.

Davide,

I don't have "telnet' file at all, may be I don't have patch installed
for this I believe. Let me load tha patch.

Thanks.

The server is telnetd.

Please do not use it if the computer is connected to the
Internet. The computer will be cracked under a minute.

A much more secure option is to use SSH instead of Telnet.

I am able to SSH on to mymachine through Router, I need to ftp some
files onto my machine which is behind the Router, how can I do that?.

Even with local machine on the LAN, can't able to do ftp at all, I can
see xinetd is running. Is there any secure ftp like SSH?. Thanks in
advance.

Ever thought about what the leading "t" in tftp stands for?

t == trivial

It has no authentication or even security support.

BTW
If you are replying from google groups do not use its default way
which does not quote the text you are replying to. This makes it
harder for people not using google groups to help you while at
the same time annoying regulars on a daily basis. IIRC there
is an option to show text and then you can use the reply button
at the bottom. Please use that, thx.

Not that I'm aware of. Tftp tends to be used for stuff that's not that
critical, such as booting an OS etc.
