Which of the following files is used to enable Telnet service on a Linux system?
  1. /etc/telnetd.conf
  2. /etc/telnetd.d/telnet.conf
  3. /etc/xinitd.d/telnet
  4. /var/lib/telnet/telnet.conf
Explanation
Answer - C - You should use the/etc/xinitd.d/telnet command to enable Telnet service on a Linux system.

Key Takeaway: Linux is configured to run the Telnet and the FTP server. By default, these services are not enabled. To enable these services, login to the server as the root userid and edit the file /etc/xinetd.d/telnet. Once these changes are made you should need to restart the xinetd daemon.
