configuring telnet service in RHEL 4

[Allen, Jack]

	Look in /etc/pam.d/remote and if it has the option multiple for
the session, remove the option. This was identified last year and was
suppose to be fixed, not to have the option. So if you just installed
RHEL 4 and did not run up2date you will have the problem. If you are not
going to run up2date, then you may want to grep for multiple in
/etc/pam.d to check all the file. I seem to remember there was another
one that contained multiple, but do not see it now.
