Yes, I installed the same setup as before with the same IP address and node
name. Pings all work and I have a UW213 server on the network
that can NFS mount the drives on this machine. Ping fails if unplugged. No
sub nets right now. All the machines have public static IP addresses. Telnet
fails with error message "connection refused."whether nodename or IP address
is used. There are no entries in host.allow or hosts.deny. I am using the
/etc/hosts files as lookup and do not have a DNS or DHCP server running. All
this is the same as before the boot problem forced the reload. Telnet is OK
in the services file and the syslog does not have any entries about
this...only bootup stuff.
I use the ISP's for DNS out on the 'net. I found inetd is not starting on
boot and starting it manually with sacadm does not seem to help. I'm at a
loss right now. Thanks.
I may be interested in the BackupEdge product to avoid this again especially
on the other server which is the production machine.
