Hey.  I am a little new to the LINUX admin game, but I am not afraid of
docs.  I just can't find the answer to this one:

I have a Pentium running RH 5.2 acting as the network gateway for a 10baseT
ethernet LAN.  Behind the LINUX box is my WIN95 box.  I have a little
IPmasq action going on through the LINUX box so that the WIN95 box can see
the outside world through Telesys.

The 95 box has no trouble with ICQ, Netscape, RealAudio, or telnet.  I just
tried to ftp to my CS account and got what looks like a network problem.
Here's what WSFTP and Dos's ftp said:

connecting to 128.83.144.97 ...

Host type (I): UNIX (standard)
PORT 10,0,0,2,6,86
500 Illegal PORT Command
! port cmd failed.
! DoDirList failed 0

It all ends there.  Now for security reasons ('cause I don't know
everything yet) I have commented all services out of the inetd.conf.  That
shouldn't affect  this, right?

Got any ideas?

Thanks.
