Hi,
I have Linux 1.2.8 installed on a number of 486DX/66. I am using them
to form a parallel virtual machine. When testing the systems, I found
two of the machines behaved strangely with such commands as telnet/ftp
/rsh/rlogin. They don't connect if the remote host is a Linux box in
the subnet. For example, when I issued the command
telnet linux3
I got the following response:
Connected to linux3.....
Escape characters is '^]'
Connection closed by foreign host
But when I telnet to other non-Linux machines anywhere, it works fine.
I have also tried "rsh" and simply got
linux3.merrick.miami.edu UNKNOW SERVER ERROR
What should I do to fix this problem?
Thanks.
Cheers,
