I just reinstalled Mandrake 7.0 and now i cannot telnet or ftp into my linux box. It is acting like it is refusing all inbound connections but it still does ip masquerading for the rest of my home network. Just no telnet, ftp or web proxy. telnet localhost responds with --- Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused All help is greatly appreciated, Ian K.
