Telnet under LAN

[The_Metatron]

I've been trying hard to get my telnet working on the internet and it seems like it can't, is this a NT Server probl or a DSL router prob ? Since I can hack into my NT Server but can't get an answer on any other computer, either on the LAN or outside. HELP ????

What are you trying to do? Could you be more specific?

I'm telneting like I was taught to : telnet "IP adressort". The server from the company gives me an answer to insert the password, but when I try this hacking system on any other IP it says that it can't reach that adress. Thanks

sorry for the "bugsmilie" I meant : "IPadress : port"

1)What kind of device are you trying to telnet to:
ex. win98, winME, linux, winXp, etc...Certain OS's TCP/IP stack by default do not support telnet server. and some of those that do, have to turn on process manually...

2)Is that device atleast reachable, can you ping it..

3)And last, the device you are trying to reach can be blocking connections to port 23 by use of a Firewall..Are you aware of any firewalls installed on the device/s you are trying to telnet to or if there are any firewalls in between you and the device.

Telnet is a client /server application that uses TCP port 23...
If you are trying to telnet to a device, that device has to have port 23 listening.
Meaning it has to have the telnet process installed and listening...

You have to be more specific with your questions if you want us to help you out...

cheers
