Hi,

I'm trying to network my two Linux machines.  They're connected via a
hub.  I used Network Configurator to set up their eth0s.  I can ping
between the machines fine, but I can't telnet from one machine to the
other.  When I try to telnet, I get this:

Trying 192.168.2.2...
Connected to jonesy.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

The same thing happens whether I try the ip address or the host name.  I
checked /etc/inetd.conf and telnet appears to be enabled on both
machines.  Here's part of /etc/inetd.conf:

ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  in.ftpd -l -a
telnet  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  in.telnetd
gopher  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  gn

What do I need to do to be able to telnet between the machines?  Thanks,



Hidong
