Hello all,

I just installed RH7.1 last week and I have the same problem: telnet works
FROM my PC to outside, but not TO my PC. 

I've read today the mailing archive and I found the same problem in some
other mails. Unfortunately it seems that my case is out-of-normal and I
will explain why:

- telnet IS running, the command "netstat -ta" gives me 

tcp  0  0 pc259.lnl.infn.it:32838 pciris.lnl.infn.:telnet ESTABLISHED

- in the various messages I've read about this problem, the solution was
almost always of type "edit the file /etc/xinitd.d/telnet and...." BUT I
DON'T HAVE THIS FILE!!!

- almost always, the solution also includes the part 
"/sbin/service xinitd restart" or sometimes "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart"
BUT /sbin/service SAYS "xinetd: unrecognized service" AND I DON'T HAVE ANY
xinitd FILE IN MY /etc/init.d/ DIRECTORY!!!

- don't reply using the question "why don't you use ssh instead?" because
the same thing happens for the ssh too.

My question is: is there something wrong with my RedHat 7.1? And, if YES,
WHY??
