   So I spoke to soon in my previous email.  xinetd is being run at boot.  I have   
   that exact same file you have in your reply to me in my /etc/xinetd.d   
   directory.  When I run the xinetd service manually it shows in the logs that    
   it   
    is listening on that port (22).  I have telnetd installed but noticed that I   
   had to change the -L /opt/mbse/mblogin to a -E in this version of telnetd.   
      
   So my machine does answer the telnet connection and let me log in to the bbs   
   and shows me the first welcome screen.  At the bottom of that welcome screen    
   it   
   says "BBS is not allowed on thsi port" and hangs up.  When I connected this   
   time the sysop shows that I was connect to pts/3.  Is it possible that   
   ArchLinux has a different naming for telnet sessions?  I do thind this strange   
   in that I can SSH as right now I'm using the board in a ssh session and it's    
   on   
   tty pts/1.
