I remember reading before that there was a security flaw in RedHat that would allow hackers access into a pc over the internet. Just a few days ago I finally got my RedHat 7 server up and it's been working perfectly fine until yesterday. I don't know if it was just before or after I set up Samba, telnet and ftp quit working. All other services such as Samba, Apache, and IP Masq are working perfectly fine. Does this sound like a problem that's associated with the hack? Please let me know. Thanks. :D

Are the services running? Try

telnet localhost

or

ftp localhost

if that doesn't do a login prompt, check your /etc/inetd.conf to make sure the services are available from inetd... also, check your hosts.allow/deny files...

All other services appear to be running. I tried with localhost but just get an immediate "disconnected from host"
