Hah! Did you install the ipchains firewall when installing RedHat? I think 7.1 introduced it as an install time feature. Use ipchains -nL to check as root. Look for port 23 or ports 0:1023 REJECT. If thats the case, a _quick_ fix to test is /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop However, if the linux box provides net connectivity, this is a bad idea without unplugging the world. If that does indeed fix it, turn the chains back on with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains start, and take a poke at /etc/sysconfig/ipchains :) -- Sapere aude My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely. Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
