Hi, I hope this is an easy one, here are the details and we appreciate=20

any help we can get, thanks in advance

We have a thinkpad with Linux-Mandrake 6.0 installed. It is connected=20

to a local lan using tcp/ip, ethernet and a hub. There is an NT box on=20

the LAN.

Everything seems to work great! We can ping the NT from the thinkpad=20

and vice versa, no problem. We can ftp the NT from the thinkpad and=20

vice versa; BUT we can't seem to telnet the thinkpad from the NT.=20

When we telnet from the NT to the thinkpad or telnet the thinkpad from=20

the thinkpad we get the following:

"trying ...."
"connected ...."
"escape character is '^]'."

then after a few moments we get:

"connection closed by foreign host."


where did we go wrong? Any hints, suggestions would be appreciated.

Wayne
