I'm configuring a lan where my pc is the only linux machine. There I can telnet other pc's successfully and connect them but they can not telnet on my pc. After trying a message like "trying.. 186.254.20.30 .. connection refused by foriegn host" appears.
How can i know that my telnet server is running properly? If not running, how can i restart it? Please help me.. Thanks..

Hi taufiq,
You've probably got a problem with your xinetd service that is proably stopped or not running at all. you can check this by $/sbin/service xinetd status (which shud show the status- running with pid (or) stopped)
and can also check thro'
$chkconfig --list to see whether a list of services are listerd under xinetd.
