I am just using hosts the ftp is the weirdest because it tells me that
it has connected to the host and the ipaddress but waits several minutes
to actually give me the service. The telnet acts like it is trying to
use DNS instead of hosts to find the name since it waits and then connects
but connects immediately to the ipaddress yet nsswitch.conf and host.conf
should be looking in hosts first since host.conf is order hosts, bind
and nsswitch.conf has files listed first under services and hosts.

nmap shows ftp and telnet open on both machines. I have no problem pining
the machine ipaddress how do you ping ftp specifically?
