How do I completely disable telnet (solaris 8)?

I commented out the telnet line in /etc/inetd.conf, is there something else I need to do?

Thanks in advance...

HUP" your inetd process.

pkill -HUP inetd

Thanks.

Forgive my ignorance, but does that have to be done after every reboot, or just the one time?

lbj000,

The amendment to the inetd.conf file is persistent through reboots, so you don't need to do it again.
