    telnet error

    I was attempting to telnet on one of my LAN server through my other computer, when i was trying to start telnet service on win2kserver it was giving me error:0

    it says,

    'could not open a connection to host on port 23: connection failed'

    then i open a port using ZA still doesn't work ,Is there any easy solution?

    Okay, is your other machine running a firewall? (I couldn't understand what you said, but I think you said ZoneAlarm?) If so, allow the connection for your system to connect through. If that doesn't work, make sure there's definitely a telnet server running on that system and (like I said) it's accepting incoming connections. Hope I helped...

    You can't telnet to the server in order to start the telnet service.
    It kinda sounds like that's what you said.
    I came in to the world with nothing. I still have most of it.
