How about ssh? Read about it's superior capabilities at http://openssh.org It's quite the thrill!

Try running ssh. Unlike ftp and telnet, ssh is secure and _not_ obsolete.

If you are sure you want to run telnet and FTP ( instead of ssh), then try:
netstat -tap
to see if the ftp and telnet demons are listening. If they aren't, look in /etc/inetd.conf and make sure these services aren't commented out. Then try:
ps -ax
to find the process number of inetd, then:
kill -HUP (that process number)
BTW, If RH is running xinetd, forget most of what I just told you. I can't help you.

SSH is on the RedHat CDs, just search for openssh. You need to install the openssh-server package to accept incoming connections from machines to remotely access your computer.
Have you tried The Linux Documentation Project for information and How-Tos on setting up telnet and ftp? There's plenty of information on the web about doing these trivial things.

i've tried the The Linux Documentation Project - downloaded 4 or 5 how-tos but did not find any answers.
they dont have any online pages regarding this.
i also have the openssh server running.
I don't know anything about this,
And a big thank you in advance!
