I had my sysadmin install RedHat7.1 on my system called anya:
[pshastri@anya pshastri]$ uname -a
Linux anya.iiap.ernet.in 2.4.2-2 #1 Sun Apr 8 20:41:30 EDT 2001 i686 unknown
[pshastri@anya pshastri]$
I need help with this:
While I can ping, telnet, ftp and rlogin OUT of anya, I cannot telnet,
ftp or rlogin INTO anya from outside it. I can ping anya from outside it.
Eg from a machine called shoonya on the same LAN,
pshastri@shoonya% ping anya
anya is alive
But with
pshastri@shoonya% telnet anya
I get
telnet: connect: Connection refused
telnet>
Our sysadmin installed the same version of RedHat on another PC (called
saturn) on the same lan:
bash-2.04$ uname -a
Linux saturn 2.4.2-2 #1 Sun Apr 8 20:41:30 EDT 2001 i686 unknown
bash-2.04$
and there ftp, telnet and rlogin work both ways.
I have compared the /etc/host.conf, /etc/services, /etc/protocols files on the
2 machines using the diff command and they are identical. There is no
/etc/networks file on either machine.
Would you please help??
Many thanks
Prajval
