I am being pushed from AIX onto RHEL 6 and after our first 'chuck it on' install, I have a problem. Where is the old (okay insecure) telnet & ftp server? I know that they are probably regarded as archaic now, but the source servers do not have the SSH tools, so I've got to somehow transfer the data.
Apart from this, I have CRT from VanDyke which is very nice, but the company will not pay the upgrade fee to get the SSH version, so that's going to be a pain.
I do have a closed network, so I'm not too worried about packet snooping.
For a 20+ year support of AIX (with forays into and eventually out of Solaris, SCO Unixware, Dynix, TI-UX) & HP-UX, I'm feeling especially vulnerable as I've never been so stuck. Internet searches send me all over the place without a good target.
I don't even have the client side tools installed.
Code:
# time find / -name telnet -o -name ftp
/var/ftp
real 0m0.40s
user 0m0.19s
sys 0m0.20s
# time find / -name telnetd -o -name ftpd
real 0m0.40s
user 0m0.19s
sys 0m0.21s
#
Any suggestions? (without laughing please)
If I can get the executables, I am happy to set up inetd.conf - oh no! Where's that gone now? What's all this almost empty /etc/inittab?
Despair! At least from HP-UX I've got the lvm commands such as vgdisplay.
I was aware of a reference sheet to ease conversions, but I can't seem to find that at the moment either. Maybe I'm just having a bad day.
Hi All,
I need to stop all the services for telnet & FTP as we want our
server to be more secure.
Please give me some steps for jumping to SSH protocol.

Hello all,
I am planning to deploy a configuration / auditing software package for about 100 new nodes that we are planning to install. I am hearing many good things in regards to cfengine and puppet. Can someone shed some light in regards to these solutions?

rxtelnet
RXTELNET(1) BSD General Commands Manual RXTELNET(1)NAME
rxtelnet -- start a telnet and forward X-connections.
SYNOPSIS
rxtelnet [-l username] [-k] [-t telnet_args] [-x xterm_args] [-K kx_args] [-w term_emulator] [-b telnet_program] [-n] [-v] host [port]
DESCRIPTION
The rxtelnet program starts an xterm window with a telnet to host host. From this window you will also be able to run X clients that will be
able to connect securely to your X server. If port is given, that port will be used instead of the default.
If setting up the X forwarding failes, rxtelnet will still telnet in to the remote host, but without X forwarding.
The supported options are:
-l Log in on the remote host as user username.
-k Disables keep-alives.
-t Send telnet_args as arguments to telnet.
-x Send xterm_args as arguments to xterm.
-X Send kx_args as arguments to kx.
-w Use term_emulator instead of xterm.
-b Use telnet_program instead of telnet.
-n Do not start any terminal emulator.
-v Be verbose.
EXAMPLE
To login from host foo (where your display is) to host bar, you might do the following.
1. On foo: rxtelnet bar
2. You will get a new window with a telnet to bar. In this window you will be able to start X clients.
