Installation and intial use of RH6.0 (hedwig) have gone well (_very_ well, I
find), but I notice I can't telnet, rsh, etc. into my new box. Should I do
something to expressly enable ordinary-user logins by net?
This worked 'out of the box' in my earlier setups, so I never knew what
permissions were required. I assume I have to set something, since I can
'ping' the system, but my login requests are refused.
