telnet problem on a package

[Sanjiv Sharma_1]

Hi,

I have one rp8400/HP-UX 11.11 and one L3000/HP-UX 11.11 configured as two node cluster.
There are two seperate package blue and red running on rp8400(name:yellow) and L3000(name:green) individually.

I an able to telnet to yellow,green and red from itself or any other server.

I am not able to telnet to blue from another server. It gives the message.
"telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused"
OR
Connected to blue.abc.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
Local flow control off
Connection closed by foreign host.

But I am able to telnet blue from rp8400 server on which this package is running.

What could be the cause?

Thanks,
Raje.

Hi,
I'm definitely NOT a specialist on this (so I'm probably stating the obvious) but did you check the subnet in the package configuration file and the IP/subnet in the package run/halt script ?

Hi Tom,

I have checked the subnet in the package configuration file and the IP/subnet in the package run/halt script. They are same and I didn't find any problem with it.

Thanks,

Hi, Raje!

Is anything special configured for telnet in /var/adm/inetd.sec?

You may try to enable inetd's logging (inetd -l) and watch what it logs to syslog.log while you are trying your telnet.

>telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: >Connection refused
or
>Connection closed by foreign host.

These error messages indicate that the network connection could not be completed and it may be due to following reasons :

1. inted process on your machine has died or not responding and need a restart or hangup(-HUP)
2. The firewall setting have been changed to disable the telnet port.
3. telnet is commnted in inted.conf file - by somebody .

Hi all,

Thanks for all your help.

It was due to the IP conflict.

Thanks,
