Hi,
I'm having problems with one of our Linux machines. It's running Red
Hat 7.0, and it's part of an NIS network with several other Red Hat 6.1
and 7.0 machines. The problem is that I cannot telnet or ftp into this
machine. I can't even telnet into localhost on this machine. This is
the error message when trying to telnet into itself:
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
I get a similar connection refused error when trying to ftp. I tried
setting the security real low with this /etc/hosts.allow:
#
# hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are
# allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
# by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#
#in.telnetd: LOCAL
#in.ftpd: LOCAL
#ALL: 192.168.230.
#ALL: 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
ALL: ALL
It still refuses to allow telnet or ftp connections. I've tried
restarting xinetd. It seems to be on the NIS OK. I can telnet out to
other machines from this machine, but it won't allow other machines to
telnet in to it. Here are the installed telnet and ftp packages:
telnet-0.17-10
telnet-server-0.17-10
ncftp-3.0.2-1
ftp-0.17-7
tftp-server-0.17-9
gftp-2.0.7b-3
Thanks for any suggestions.
Hidong
