RE: [webmin-l] Unable to use SSH/Telnet outside of network

[Bubba C. <ca...@wi...>]

Everything is default.  I have a Red Hat 9.0 server and it works fine.
I am able to telnet to this server as long as I'm inside my building on
the same network.

If I want to allow telnet access from any IP#, what should my files look
like?

Thanks

James

Hello James,

This could be so many things that you are going to have to reach deeper
and 
give some more details.

Some things it could be:
1) iptables ruleset (/etc/sysconfig/iptables)
2) external firewall
3) /etc/hosts.allow /etc/hosts.deny
4) routing table entries

Please expand. My default RedHat installs have never restricted me this 
way, though it could be a result of the more secure extensions in the
newer 
RedHat code. BTW, I know you said Fedora, but Fedora is the Beta proving

ground for future RedHat releases.
