I installed RH6.0 from a cheapbytes CD.  All was well untill I setup a
network and tried to telnet to the machine.  I get a connection refused
message:

/usr/u1/hojo> telnet 192.168.0.254
Trying 192.168.0.254...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
/usr/u1/hojo>

my inted.conf telnet line is:

telnet  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  in.telnetd

and hosts.allow and deny are empty

How can I debug this situation and find out why telnet won't let me
connect?  I cannot even telnet to the localhost while logged into the
console.

Thank You

p.s. Just to convince myself, I hooked two PCs together with a crossover
and it worked!  Silly me.
