First, never telnet to a server, always use SSH.

If this is a Linux box, to check the server status use the command:

> uptime

If you want to see what services are running:

> top

If you need to find an eggdrop, use the command:

> locate eggdrop

There was a thread recently about what files a host should look out for:
