Well yes, its the connection from another machine 
that is blocked ... but not according to this.
r...@dalton:~# cat /etc/shorewall/policy | grep vpn
# Policies for traffic originating in the vpn zone.
vpn             all             ACCEPT
r...@dalton:~# cat /etc/inetd.conf | grep telnetd
telnet          stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/in.tel

Seems I need to learn how to examine the iptables 
directly and learn more about pam.
