Telnet...

I have FC3 with all the fixin's. I want to setup a telnet server on it to do a Demo at school for a linux club. I want to setup a Guest account so I can have it that any random student can log in, leave a note saying they want an account and put in requests. How can i setup a guest account with no password on linux?

For security reasons you _really_ and I cannot stress this enough do NOT want to setup a passwordless telnet account. Telnet server itself is ran via a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d ... I would suggest creating a guest account BUT definately having it have a password, even if that password is "guest"
