Don't rag on me about telnet. This is internal to a network with no
internet connection. All users are "trusted".
</disclaimer>
The facts:
1) A network with one 2 Windows boxes and 3 Linux boxes.
2) The Windows box can ping all boxes on the network, both by IP and by
name.
3) The Windows box can telnet into the server (RH62), bullwinkle.
4) The Windows box can't telnet into another specific Linux machine
(RH61), felix.
5) There is no firewalling code running on any boxes.
I assume that when a box gets a telnet request, it starts the telnet
daemon by itself. This is what seems to happen in looking at ps output.
Assuming that this service is not blocked for some other reason on
felix (as with /etc/inetd.conf),
Question:
Can you think of any reason why felix would not respond to a telnet
request?
