Thumbs down cannot connect remotely


I have installed redhat 8 and had no luck connecting remotely.

I have used chkconfig to turn iptables off.

I have tried reinstalling and selecting no firewall.

But still I can't ssh or telnet to the box.

I can ping it, but that's it.

Any help is much appreciated.

thanks,

Couple things to check...

Make sure your sshd is running. That's the server/deamon that sits around waiting for somebody to try connecting to the system...
service sshd restart

Look in your /etc/hosts.allow file. I have a line that is like...
sshd: 192.168.0.

Also, if you're trying to connect remotely from the internet and you have a router, check the router's firewall.
