I have 2 Linux box, AS 2.1 & AS 3. My AS 2.1 port 13782 is listening but my AS 3 is not. How do I troublshoot this networking issue?

# telnet linuxas 13782
Trying 198.33.160.91...
Connected to spain.
Escape character is '^]'.

Connection closed by foreign host.

[root@Canada netbackup]# telnet carott 13782
Trying 198.33.160.90...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[root@Canada netbackup]#

check if service works in carrott box.

#netstat -a |grep tcp
will show u net status for tcp ports. have a look if that service listens its port.

if it s ok, check firewall configuration.

Thanks for the reply. There are no port listed for 13782. I have no firewall setup on my Linux. Any more clues?

i had a look at /etc/services
[root@egemen root]# cat /etc/services |grep 13782
bpcd 13782/tcp # VERITAS NetBackup
bpcd 13782/udp # VERITAS NetBackup


your service works on tcp port? if its so your service doesnt work.

have a look at logs. generally it says why it doesnt work.
try to restart it. and check it by netstat and ps commands.

#ps uax

Yes, I have 13782 in my /etc/services. I found nothing in the log stating backup problem. I restart the service and even reboot the server, still not working and my "connection is still refuse (status 57)", vertias. My AS 2.1 had no problem but AS 3 is giving me headache.
