telnet and rlogin problems

 Rel: FreeBSD 6.2

 

 Summary: I am unable to get either 

                 telnet or rlogin to function

 

 Details: To several of my PCs, that had been running 4.11,

             I have installed release 6.2.

 

             To the rc.conf, which was used for 4.11, I added:

 

                 rcpbind_enable="YES"

                 rpc_lockd_enable="YES"

                 rpc_statd_enable="YES"

                 nfs_server_enable="YES"

                 nfs_client_enable="YES"

                 mountd_enable="YES"

                 ftpd_enable="YES"

 

              To hosts.allow, I added:

 

                 rpcbind | ALL | allow

 

              To login.access, I added:

 

                 +:ALL:.ursa.com

 

            I have looked in the handbook, Michael Lucas's

            2nd Ed Absolute FreeBSD and in both the NOTES

            files for configuring the kernel, and I still am un-

            able to either telnet or rlogin to the box.  I do not

            recall that I have made any changes to the kernel

            config file when going to 6.2 - I believe that I am

            using the same config file.

 

            It is my opinion that I am missing one or two

            specific incantations.  Can anyone out there

            shed some light on what I am missing to get

            these to work?

 

            Thank you.
