root access via telnet
« on: August 20, 2002, 06:23:59 AM »
Have upgraded to 5.5, set the remote access so that root can login via telnet in the private network.

However I get 'Login Incorrect' it will connect as 'admin' fine.

Is this by design or a fault.

Cheers
Shaun

This is a design by deafult, root is now allowed to login over telnet because telnet is very insecure, try using SSH instead of telnet.

Thanks,
Nathan
