Hi,
I have small LAN: 3 win2k workstations and 1 Debian linux gateway/firewall. I want to telnet into my gateway/firewall from one of my win2k stations. Tired of always going downstairs to change the firewall rules or whatnot J So how do I set this up? I set up the proper firewall rules. I added the line ALL:HOMER to my hosts.allow file (HOMER is the win2k host that needs access). My hosts.deny file contains ALL:ALL. And I haven't modified my inetd.conf file.
THX
Can you telnet from any of your machines? If not, you may
_need_ to modify your inetd.conf file if it doesn't have an entry for
telnet. What exactly is the error message? And, are the
w2k workstations on the INSIDE (private) side of the firewall?
Wait a minute. I'm more versed in Cisco ACL's, not IPMASQ
and linux, but doesn't hosts.deny ALL:ALL explicitly _disallow_ ANY
connections? Or does hosts.allow override that? Which has
precedence?
Then again, advice from me is worth every cent you paid for it.
:-)
