Faced with the same problems as the original poster, I have managed to telnet
directly into my home box from work. Originally the problem was "the host
refused the connection". Open port 22 in firewall. Second problem was
libwrap refused the connection. I had "in.telentd: xx.xx.xx.xx" in
hosts.allow and it still didn't work. I moved xx.xx.xx.xx into the "ALL:"
line and telnet from work, worked. I'm not suggesting there isn't a bug
there, just putting forward a work-around that does work.
