SSH & Mandrake 8.2
Hi, I'm new to the Linux world and thus far I'm loving it! But I can't SSH nor telnet into my Linux box remotely! Is there something that I have improperly configured somewhere?? If so. . . what can I do to enable SSH?? Thanks!.

Sounds like you need to install openssh server. I would go ahead and install openssh client to if it is not installed. Go to Mdk control center/install software and search "openssh" If it is not installed, install both and try "ssh-ing" again.
Are you using a router? Also check that ssh port is open. I think it's 22. Not sure about telnet port.

(amend) open port 22 on router if you are trying to connect to it from outside a network. If you are inside a network, I don't you will need to open it, but I'm not completely sure on that.
Sound like the SSH Server is'nt installed. Slap The Mandrake CD's in and do a ps | grep ssh . On one of the CD's there is an sshdserver or something like that, run rpm -i *sshdserver* . Once that's installed run service sshd status . If it's not runnig do service sshd start and then try and connect to your box via ssh.
