Have a look at /var/log/secure. Have a good look at /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny. If you modified inetd.conf to allow the telnet and ftp connections, did you restart or reload inetd? Do the services pointed to by inetd.conf actually exist? You may not have a telnet or ftp server even installed. Can you telnet or ftp to localhost (ie, can you connect to yourself)? -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
