Various systems, but mainly Solaris 10 and RHEL. In almost all cases I've found that telnet was disabled but there were a couple instances where it was not. Also, I've found instances where it doesn't appear that root is restricted to the console (but root login via SSH is disabled) but telnet was disabled. Which brings me to the question of does it matter, if telnet is disabled could root still log in at the console?
