Peter,

I had a similar problem once.  Check the file /etc/inetd.conf
My had been overwritten once when upgrading a while back.  Make sure the
services you want to allow are enabled.

        Subject:  1.3.1 Upgrading Probs

        Hello there,

            maybe you can help -- I didn't expect these problems when
upgrading to
            1.3.1. the upgrade itself went smoothly but now I'm unable
to use any of
            my networking interfaces:

            The network devices (eth0 and lo0) are set up correctly, I
can do a ping
            but all other services like telnet/ rlogin and ftp return a
"connection
            refused error" after a timeout.

            The netdevices look as they should:
              # ifconfig
              lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
                        inet addr:127.0.0.1  Bcast:127.255.255.255
Mask:255.0.0.0
                        UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3584
Metric:1
                        RX packets:59351 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
                        TX packets:59351 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

              eth0      Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet  HWaddr
00:00:C0:56:5F:A4
                        inet addr:193.96.166.51  Bcast:193.96.166.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
                        UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500
Metric:1
                        RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
                        TX packets:0 errors:31 dropped:0 overruns:0
                        Interrupt:10 Base address:0x250
Memory:d0000-d4000 


            # route -n
        Kernel IP routing table
        Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref
Use Iface
        193.96.166.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0
1 eth0
        127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0
2 lo

            The Gateway addresses sound quite strange to me. Maybe this
causes the
            problem?

            I'm starting the network services with a slightly modified
version of the
            standard network script:

              # Configure the loopback device.
              ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
              route add -net 127.0.0.0 dev lo

              # Configure the ethernet device or start SLIP/PPP below.
              IPADDR="193.96.166.51"
              NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
              NETWORK="193.96.166.0"
              BROADCAST="193.96.166.255"
              GATEWAY=""

              /sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} netmask ${NETMASK} broadcast
${BROADCAST}
              /sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK}
              [ ! -z "$GATEWAY" ] && /sbin/route add default gw
${GATEWAY} 

            Having spend over a day with upgrading I'm frustrated and
would appreciate
            any help. BTW: The script worked with no probs and on the
same hardware
            with 1.2.x debian.

            It seems to be no library or configuration problem on the
rlogin's side,
            cause when I'm connected to my ISP all services work.

                    Thanks -- Peter
