Re: telnetd: All network ports are in use

[cwilson at pclink dot dynip dot com (Christopher Wilson)]

Before the Gnu telnetd I ran a stand alone telnet server, and did not have
that limitation. Have not implemented the Gnu telnetd yet.
I have had up to 50 customers at a time connected with my present setup.
Hopefully I will not run into the same problem.
