First, I should mention I am not an expert - firewalls, natd, inetd, DNS, etc. are 'terra incognita' ... almost .. for me.. :-) Well, I turned on inetd logging ( options are -wWl ). Just to recall: my server IP is 193.68.22.2. When I telnet from IP 193.68.22.2 (i.e. localhost), for example, I see the [inetd] log messages in the log file. However, if I telnet from some other IP, 212.50.31.21 for example, there are NO logging activity in the log file. NONE! Zero! Could it be some firewall issue ? On some other machine among the ISP's LAN (the server is plugged-in in an ISP LAN) ? As I say, I am totaly confused ? Sorry for the flood of questions, but I just got a 24h internet connection from another ISP, different from the one where my server is collocated. The price etc is good and I would like to be able to connect to my machine... Yes, I use ssh, it works fine, but ... plamen. ------------------- Plamen D.
