when i try to use any service i get

connection refused

message

What things i need to configure.

It may mean that service is not running or firewall is not allowing to connect (the second case is less probable, because firewalls usually don't bother in sending "connection refused", just don't send anything).

about second thing ie firewall setting tell me file which i shoud see

i think it will be ipchains.conf(or similer as i am sending this mail from windows machine)
