<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>Hi Brian,</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>In this instance telnet is being used to see
if a port is open, it does not require the telnetd daemon to be running on any
server.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>If you telnet from your Hobbit client to
your Hobbit server on port 1984 ( $ telnet 10.0.0.1 1984 ) and you get an error
like "connection refused" then the client can probably reach the server but the
Hobbit daemon is not listening on port 1984 on that machine.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>If you perform that same command and the
connection times out after a few minutes then the packets are usually being
dropped at a firewall somewhere.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>If, however, you perform that command and
you get something like "Connected to ...</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>Escape character is '^'.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008>" then the network is set up fine,
the remote Hobbit server is up and running and your client is able to talk
to it, so you need to start looking at problems with the Hobbit
configuration.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=875400009-04112008></SPAN> </DIV>

<DIV>I have similar issues on SuSE SLES 10 servers and vms. The
processes are, no firewalls. This is a security server set, so a
lot of services are turned off . I cant telnet on port 1984 just
fine, coming back - there is no telnetd enabled... My question is
= what, if any network services are required from the server to have
hobbit communications work. I have had absolutely no difficulty
with my sun servers, even coming through the firewall from the
DMZ.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyone have this info please? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks</DIV>
