Difficulty getting telnet server up

Post by gillgian » Fri Mar 19, 2004 12:06 pm

I added mq2telnet=mq2telnet to macroquest.ini plugin section and
updated the mq2telnet.ini enabling port 23 for telnet. i tried a few other ports also and i cannot establish a connection. I am not running eq during this process. Is there a way to cause the server to log it's initialization of the plugins?

It's not a firewall or anything like that as i am using it on local machine. I ran a port scanner on my machine and there is no service listening on 23 or any other port i set it too. This leads me to believe that the plugin is not loaded and/or failed.

Any tips or hints?
