can't telnet or ft into unixware site? everything seems to be running

For some strange reason I can't telnet into a new unixware 7 station even
though everything seems to be running.  I have checked the services file,
inetd file, etc but can't identify the problem.  I can connect by telnet
to other stations on the internet but not my own when even when attempting
the connection from the unix console.  What have I overlooked?  This is
the first time that I have installed unixware 7 and the documentation is
very weak.  The message that I get back is that the connecting host does
not have permission to connect.  I should think thatmy host should be able
to connect without any permission requirements or settings.  By the way I
am running at the traditional security level.

If you have configured TCP/IP you should be able to telnet to UW7 on
traditional security level.
The error you have (as far as I know) concerned to C2 level when telnet is
prohibited.
Try changing your security level to Low and then back to traditional. It might
help.
