Disabling Telnet Port 23 Access [Solved]

[ColinM]

I think the reason I can't find any Telnet files on my system is that I don't recall selecting any options that would probably use it at installation. IRC, Chat etc. I don't waste my time with those things.

 

I've tested my system at two more places, and passed. So I think the initial scare from 'Shiled's Up' was a false alarm due to scanning my ISP rather than my sytem. Something for others on dial-up to consider.

 

Thank you all for your advice. A great community for Linux learners.

PS. Must say I'm looking at the new Mini Mac though...
