Scott,

No, don't rebuild.  For the time being do a "service ipchains stop" command.
Well, before that, do this:
ipchains -L -n

and _then_ do the stop.  Email me the resulting output, and I'll see if I
can diddle with the rules a little for you.

Mark appears to be the winner.

Yes, I did select firewall security level 'Medium' when generating the
system.  It sounded good, anyway.

So I'm guessing it would be easier at this point to rebuild than to try to
undo what has been done?

What should I enter for this prompt for a system that lives behind a
corporate firewall?  

Thanks for the help,

Michael, Scott,

This sounds more like a firewall issue.  When you did the install, what did
you select for your "security level?"  "Medium" doesn't allow these sort of
connections.

Hi Scott,

Are you trying to login as 'root' or somebody else?  When you FTP or Telnet
to your Linuxes IP address - do you get the login prompt (so your connection
is good)?  Try logging in as somebody other than root.  Take a look at
/etc/security/access.conf and make sure you are enabling logins.

All,

I have generated a RedHat 7.2 system for use under VM.  I am using a VM
guest id that works fine with SuSE 7.0.

The /etc/xinetd.d config files for telnet, rsh, rlogin all have disable=yes.
I changed them to disable=no (I am behind a firewall) and did both 'service
xinetd restart' and rebooted, but I still get 'connection refused' when
trying to login using any of the services.  Is it intended with the default
install to not be able to do a network login?  I can ping the RedHat
system's IP address fine from everywhere that I need to access the system.


Thanks,
