Hello,

I run Red Hat 8.0 on a new Dell box. Most of configuration is default. For couple of months my telnet worked fine but just recently I noticed it stopped working. The only thing that I have done is that I upgraded Amanda backup system. The telnet seems to be running. I can telnet from the server out. However, When I try to connect from outside on the same network. I can see the server on the network. I can access the the computer through samba but I cannot telnet to it. The error that I get is following:

C:\>telnet 192.168.2.71
Connecting To 192.168.2.71...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23
 Connect failed

Please let me know how troubleshoot telnet.

Note:
Replay just in regard of Telnet no SSH or substitute.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Les
