Telnet...

["Brad ." <capstone7 hotmail com>]

I have installed a RedHat 5.1 box on out Windows network and I have been 
unable to get it to appear correctly to Windows. 

However, I have been able to use Telnet from a Windows box to access it 
and log in as a user. I cannot log in as root from Telnet though. It 
just comes up, "login incorrect" but I can log in as root on the Linux 
box itself.

Does anyone know why this is?

Also, when I start Telnet and try to connect, it prompts me for 
Hostname, Port & Termtype. I have just used the defaults - being IP 
address, telnet & vt100. Is this correct? Where is the terminal type and 
port set up in Linux?

Regards,
Brad
