i have a small lan, consisting of win98 computers and a Mandrake 60.
computer.
I am trying to get POP3 services working on Mandrake. When i telnet to
port 110 of the linux box. I get "Connection closed by foriegn host."
I can telnet and ftp with out any trouble. I have the ip address in
/etc/host.allow
and the /etc/host.deny is empty except for comments. In
/etc/inetd.conf I
have this line "pop-3 stream tcp nowait root
/usr/sbin/tcpd ipop3d".
in /etc/sevices i have this lines "pop-3 110/tcp" and
"pop-3 110/udp".
any of you guys have any idea. what can be going on or know where i
might find
information whats going on?
thanks
