Hiya James,

The answer is that by default Redhat 7.1 leaves these services disabled in
the /etc/xinet.d dir - in here u will find one file pertaining to each
service, like TELNET, etc - if you edit the file, you will see that
'disabled = yes' - change this to no, and restart xinetd - you should be
able to access your services then.  As to FTP, that one is a bit more
tricky, but there is a good howto on the RH site.

Cheers,

Richie

Hi

I have just installed Redhat v7.1 on a new PC we just got. The install went 
lovely, when it asked about firewall stuff i asked for no firewall. Now when

the machine has booted it can see the network and others can ping it but I 
cann't telnet, rlogin or ftp to it.

Can any one help.


James
