For a quick test, disable iptables. If it starts to work, it's the iptables. If not, look upstream (router perhaps). From the remote end, try and telnet to port 9696 and see what happens. Run tcpdump on your system to see if the connections are getting in. > After all this weird thing, I added port 9696 to /etc/services > (thinking i may help in some way) but with no success. If it works connecting from localhost, then it's not a services issue. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
