Enable Incoming Telnet connection on Mac OS 10.12 - macos

I could not find anything other than the command below but this did not work either. I need to allow an incoming telnet connection from a PC app to connect to my Mac. I know SSH is better but I have to have telnet to connect to my Mac OS. Does anyone know?
This is the only thing I found to allow the incoming telnet connection, however this did not work.
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/telnet.plist
-Seth

According to apple support :
You can’t use Telnet to log in to your Mac.

how to enable gui app in github codespaces?

Some opencv code needs to show a GUI window when executing. Instead it shows Gtk-WARNING **: xxx: cannot open display:. It happened both on the web and in the desktop app. Is it possible to use something like x11 forwarding to enable this feature? Thanks.
Use x11 forwarding.
On the codespaces, ssh X11 forwarding is enabled by default.
Just make sure to install xauth package, then connect to codespaces use gh cs ssh -- -X.
Goose's answer almost worked for me. I had to use gh cs ssh -- -XY.

cannot open display from macos client with openvpn

I am trying to connect to a redhat server from a macos client, using ssh and openvpn. Command line commands work fine (eg vim), but displays dont get displayed, eg while running firefox or gvim, and I get the error:
No protocol specified
E233: cannot open display
I did "xhost +" and "export XAUTHORITY=~/.Xauthority" on the macos client, and "export DISPLAY=:0.0" on the redhat server, but that did not solve the problem.
However, it is working when the client is ubuntu, so I guess the problem is on the macos client side.
BTW, when I run ssh after I did "xhost +", I get the warning:
Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed: xauth key data not generated
Any suggestions?
Answer is given here: instead of doing "ssh -X", do "ssh -Y". This is the short solution (which worked for me on Catalina + XQuartz), other longer solutions are also provided at this link.

Forticlient VPN from mac CLI

I'd like to make a script to connect to different SSL VPN's from MAC OS X. I cannot find any info as to how to connect VPN's via command line? Can anyone please help me with this?
Thanks!
There is actually a way. First, install openfortivpn via brew:
brew install openfortivpn
Then, connect as such:
sudo openfortivpn <server_ip>:<server_port> -u <username> -p <password>
After some research I have come to conclusion there is no FortiClient CLI for MAC OS. In other words there is no commands for FortiClient in terminal. Still you can use terminal for Backup/Restore/Export for FortiClient VPN configuration. You can use this link for reference:

RabbitMmq on Mac can't start

I've installed rabbitmq on Mac OS X via homebrew, just a simple command:
$ brew install rabbitmq
but, when I start the server via rabbitmq-server, it occurs:
ERROR: distribution port 25672 in use on localhost (by non-Erlang process?)
I want to find some process that uses port 25672, but I can't find that really strange
anyone knows the reason, thx a lot :)
Use sudo lsof -i :25672 to find the process. sudo may or may not be needed depending on user permissions.

I get this error while trying to launch the command ./runInstaller

I have this error while trying to launch the command ./runInstaller
Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
From Oracle help docs:
sudo yum install xorg-x11-utils -y
worked for me.
If you are executing this via Putty, then I suggest you have a look at Xming, this allows you to have a Putty remote ssh session, and forward your display to you Windows machine...
If you're executing this from a Linux server without a gui, you will either need to connect remotely with a pc with a GUI installed (Gnome, KDE, etc) or you'll need to install the Gui directly on the server.
Check if it's not already installed by using the command on the terminal
$ startx
Error is reproducible thus:
$ export DISPLAY=:0.0
$ ./runInstaller
ERROR: Unable to verify the graphical display setup. This application requires X display. Make sure that xdpyinfo exist under PATH variable.
Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
OP's X server was Hummingbird Exceed. Xming will work as well.
The actual solution depends on:
whether you are su'd to oracle from a different login account.
whether you are using X11 forwarding.
the actual port used by X11 forwarding, which could be 6010 or a different port.
If you logged in and then su'd to oracle, then copy ~/.Xauthority to the oracle account.
If you are using X11 forwarding and the forwarding port is 6010, then DISPLAY=localhost:10.0 is correct.
If you are not using X11 forwarding, and if port 6000 on your PC is reachable from the oracle server, then export DISPLAY=your.pc.ip.address:0.0 is correct.
Install xterm and use xterm to test X windows.
Be sure to install xdpyinfo.
For more details, please refer to my article X windows for Oracle DBAs
