The problem I'm having is that when I run a server on my Debian Linux
machine, I can access the server from the local loopback interface, but
the connection gets refused if I use the external IP address. For
example, I have MySQL running and can connect to it with

telnet localhost 3306

but doing

telnet 192.168.0.110 3306

will result in the connection being refused. And yes, the IP address I'm
using is correct.

I have a 2-machine network with the Linux box and a Windows box
connected with a DLink router. I can connect to the Windows box just
fine from the Linux box, but not the other way around. I can only
connect to the Linux box from the loopback interface on the Linux box.
Pings work just fine in both directions.

My iptables settings are set to allow anything. I'm not sure where to go
with this to debug it. Something is causing the Linux box to refuse
connections and I'm not sure what's doing it.

I can get to the outside world just fine, it's just connections coming
in on the NIC that always get refused.

Is it only MySQL that you can't connect to via 192.168.0.110, or is
it every service?
