Re: Telnet problems

["Matthias Oertli" <oertlim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was looking for security problems without any success. I can telnet to the 
linux box from any other machine on the same subnet without a problem.
To be sure I brought tcp/ip on the 400 down and assigned it's IP address to a 
PC from which I could again successfully telnet to the 400.
