I have just setup RH 7.1 and I am trying to ftp from another pc on the same network to the RH machine. I am getting a "connection refused" message and can not FTP. I can however logon to the RH machine and successfully perform an ftp to the localhost. I have searched for a solution on Google, RedHat as well as other sites and all I can find are partial threads that seem to mention the same problem but no solutions or other threads with solutions that don't correct the problem. I have disabled the firewall and checked the wu-ftpd config file. When I disable the firewall using the "setup" program the ipchains file in the /etc/sysconfig dir goes away so I assume that I have disabled the firewall and ipchains. I also restarting the xinetd service after attempting each solution but that doesn't help either. There is nothing in the hosts.allow or hosts.deny files, although I did try to add ALL:ALL to the hosts.allow file but that did not work either. Finally I assume that since I can FTP locally that the ftp service is up and running. Can someone please tell me whether or not I have missed something? It would be greatly appreciated. I did read one email thread that mentioned RH 7.1 was "locked down" by default. Does anyone know what that means. I assumed that it meant the default firewall configuration was "high", is that correct and when I select "no firewall" through the setup program doesn't that override the "lock down"?
Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
