I should also tell you that I'm trying to telnet out of my linux box. [robin]$ rpm -qa| grep telnet telnet-0.17-23
[root]# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT all -- anywhere anywhere Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT (1 references) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT udp -- ns1.ri.cox.net anywhere udp spt:domain ACCEPT udp -- ns1.om.cox.net anywhere udp spt:domain REJECT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp flags:SYN,RST,ACK/SYN reject-with icmp-port-unreachable REJECT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp reject-with icmp-port-unreachable This doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I don't see telnet or port 23 anywhere. Any ideas? I don't think lockit was installed - not in my path and there is no man page for it. I also couldn't find a graphical interface for it.
