I have the banners displaying for ssh connections, but incoming telnet connections just display the default settings and not /etc/issue.net. Any ideas?

Are you still using telnet? – FedKad Feb 01 '25 at 15:08
Yes, I support ssh too, but I want to set it up to use telnet from a BBS. – Marisa Giancarla Feb 01 '25 at 15:34
The telnet protocol requires that everything (login credentials, session interactions) be sent/received in the clear (unencrypted). That's why it's no longer recommended. – waltinator Feb 01 '25 at 17:26
Are you using inetutils-telnetd, or some other telnetd implementation? – steeldriver Feb 01 '25 at 18:09

On ubuntu 24.04 how do I get /etc/issue.net to display for incoming telnet connections?
