This was mentioned in the 7.1 release notes: Sendmail now doesn't accept incoming SMTP for security reasons (no more open mail relays for spammers!). > 6) I had modified one of the ports to allow ftp access for a friend of > mine who attends a college that has blocked port 21 so the students > can't ftp off campus.

An upgrade *shouldn't* change the config files! However, it does. Therefore I always do a backup of /etc so I can diff the changes later. > 7) Telnet and ftp weren't working.

Instead of telnet you should use SSH!
