by I have two Linux boxes connected via TCP/IP (peer to peer). I am able to
ping both machines via host name, alias and IP address. ifconfig shows eth0
and loop set up and running. I cannot use NFS without getting connection
refused.
I am able to use telnet from one machine to the other but not back the other
way (again connection refused).
also
http://hostname:901 (connection refused) returns the surver may not be
accepting connections or maybe busy
xinetd.d exists but is empty
when I use rpcinfo -p I get: (on the machine that won't telnet)
1000000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
1000000 2 udp 111 portmapper
1000021 3 udp 1024 nlockmgr
1000021 3 udp 1024 nlockmgr
1000024 1 udp 1025 status
1000024 1 tcp 1024 status
Is it because the xinetd.d is not configured with the required services?? Do
I need to configure identd.conf??
any help would be gr8ly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Pete
