Hi,
testing my TelnetServer installation on Win XP with Putty...
Putty Connection type Telnet, Host=localhost and Port=23
InetD Services are running, Configuration by default.

Putty answers with "Connection closed by remote host" instead prompting me for login.
What could be wrong?

Thanks for Help, Jan

This error is caused by another software installed on the server that is blocking socket activity. We have found that McAfee VirusScan 7.0 and Diamond Port Monitor cause this error, but there are most likely other programs that could cause the error as well.

Check your system for software that monitors the network or other processes. You will need to uninstall the other application. We have found that only disabling the software does not fix the error.
