Hi Frank,

I am trying with ftp, ssh, telnet, http, even ping. All of which are
enabled and were working just fine yesterday. Basically the server does
not exist on that ip address to this client, but it does on the other
server ip addy.

hosts.deny is empty
Iptables/ipchains are also empty

The client doesn't have the server listed in a hosts file. I have tried
many machines on this ip address to access that server.

Trying to connect to the server with direct ip address, so there is no
hostname lookup failure happening here.
