telnetd for Fedora

Hi all

I'm trying to find a telnet server for an old Fedora box.

Some details

kernel 2.6.9-1.681_FC3 #1
glibc-2.3.3-74
rpm-4.3.2-21

From what I can see telnet-server-0.17-7 should work, but I can't find a
copy anywhere.

(And before anyone says, yes I know I should just shoot the box and be
done).

Thanks
Rob

Why not just grab the source to any telnet server and compile it? Or
why not compile/install openssl and forget about telnet -- it's
obsolete and insecure.

Thanks, that worked first time.

I know telnet is old, I was looking for a way to hook onto the box in case I
stuff up the ssh to it, am trying putty off my symbian60 phone.

Cheers
