I've been having the hardest time getting a telnet server to work on empeg... I'm consistantly getting a message:
Telnetd: getpty: No such file or directory

Here's what I did..
AFTER setting everything up so that it works w/ ftp/ping/etc...
Made sure that inetd.conf to include the line:
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd

...and that services contained:
telnet 23/tcp

...then downloaded telnetd_0.16-4.deb from the debian distribution; chrooted to my debian dest, ran dpkg-dev -x telnetd_0.16-4.deb telnetd; exited out of my deb destribution
cp the telnetd directory (which included
/usr/lib/telnetd/login
/usr/sbin/in.telnetd ) to the right places in empeg's environment..

What am I missing? Any clues what that message means? in.telnetd is actually being called when I try to connect, but it's missing something and dying.:(
