Any chance someone has already built a package that has/includes Telnetd for linux ?
Telnetd is available as part of the netkit-telnet package available in our package repositories. Install it using opkg:
opkg update
opkg install netkit-telnet
Edit: fixed the incorrect statement of my original answer
That’s what I originally though too, but couldn’t find it.
Which repository were you referring to ? The one I’m using (granted it’s older) is:
feeds.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/v2014.06/ipk/eglibc/armv7at2hf-vfp-neon
I looked through the others but didn’t find any reference to telnet in the packages…
The package may be found in the latest repos: Index of /angstrom/feeds/v2015.06/ipk/glibc/armv7at2hf-vfp-neon/base
It can also be built using OpenEmbedded. There appear to be at least a couple recipes providing it (netkit & inetutils).
Thanks, found it…
Now I just have to get it into systemd control…
Fedora seems to have a patch for that, not sure if that made it into the official netkit-telnet release…
