[wplug] ipchains

Hi everyone,

I have a problem related to telneting to a RH 7.1 box.
 Telnet is "on" and "telnet localhost" works okay.

/etc/hosts.deny is in place with ALL:ALL

/etc/hosts.allow is in place with in.telnetd:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

/etc/resolv.conf is in place with all the nameserver
entries for DNS.

We were thinking that "ipchains" has something to do
with all this, so we 

/etc/init.d/ipchains stop

Still, we are not able to telnet to that box.  

Any help is appreciated.
