  • Telnet only working from localhost, any thoughts?

    We're working on setting-up a system, and it's going for the most part ... but we can't connect via telnet except from the server
    itself. From the network we're unable to telnet in. This is on a Linux server, and nothing is setup in iptables and as far as Ican
    tell nothing is blocking the port. It was working yesterday, then today nothing. Just curious if anyone has suggestions.

    Thanks.

    Reboot PC if that dosent work reboot router.
    that happens to me once in a while a reboot usually fixes it.

    I have, but though it didn't work directly after I stopped/restarted the service it's now working, so who knows...
