I set up two remove linux boxes - (RH7) behind a firewall. One has been in service since the release of RH7 - no problems (we will call this one box A). The other is a brand new (yesterday) RH7 (was slackware) box. (Box B) The firewall forwards telnet/ssh requests to box A. I can then telnet into Box B if necessary from inside the firewall. (I know there are security issues with telnet - as soon as telnet works, i'll disable and use ssh instead. nfs, samba, telnet, ftp all working - all wide open access at this point. (to be restricted). I had multiple sessions on both Box A and B yesterday and this morning from my home. Absolutely no problems....then.... I happen to notice that all Box B connections had died except one (at the risk of numerous lectures - all of which I deserve - I'll admit that on this one I was root). No additional connections can now be made. All nfs services had shutdown (which I restarted and now work fine). With my root access I can see that telnet.d is going. There were no cron jobs at all for the root account - hadn't gotten there yet. Service is enabled and open and yet still I get Trying 192.168.168.198... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused Any ideas?? ========================================= Michaell _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
