That sounds to me like an identd- or tcpwrapper-related issue. I'd compare the /etc/inetd.conf files from the two systems, and failing that, the /etc/pam.d/login files. Either way, I think what you'll find is that the Red Hat system is trying to find out either the name of the system you're connecting from, or the userid you're logged in as on that system.
