Hi guys,
Could someone please help me with FTP and Telnet on RedHat 7.1. After I install RedHat 7.1, everything seems to work Ok except FTP and Telnet. The network interface works Ok I can ping other machine. Before I use RedHat 6.1 FTP and Telnet are working but RedHat7.1. I see the other guy points out it is a firewall. I have tried to configure firewall but have no luck. Could somebody please help me to make FTP and Telnet on my RedHat7.1.

Couple of things. Do you have a firewall installed. If you dont have the daemons running open a terminal and type Setup. You will get a list of everything that is enabled.

Go to /etc/xinet.d/
This directory contains all xinetd related services. Edit both files (wu-ftp and telnet) and just change line that reads disable = yes to disable = no
Then restart xinetd (/etc/init.d/xinetd restart) and you'll be fine.
