I thought this should work, but it doesn't, even though I have telnet
enabled in the global settings. I suspect that the remote user loging in
does not have sufficient access privileges. Here is the user table
(fictional user):

Name Type Address/Host Service RIP
-------- ---------------- ------------------- ---------- ---
user Netuser Assigned 00000000 No

here is a s1 setup:

any ideas?
