Yah, "telnet localhost" is stupid.  Why is it more stupid than 
"xterm localhost"?

Thx,                      ... P.

Don't do that.
If, however, you're committed to doing stupid things, you can run

| exec tcpserver -v -I lo localhost telnet telnetd -E /bin/bash

as a runit service.

HTH,

Hi,

In Debian I had this. 
# grep tcpd /etc/inetd.conf 
telnet  stream  tcp  nowait  root  /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/telnetd  -E bin/bash

Appears tcpd is not used in Void.  Can the above be adapted? How?

I know telnet is insecure and use it only within a host and the host 
is firewalled.  In effect, telnet replaces xterm.

Thx,                ... P.
