I can ping from one machine to the other fine, but when I try to ftp or telnet from one to the other I get: Unable to connect to remote host: Permission denied I have searched the mail archives and the handbook in vain for a solution. Can anyone help me out here? BTW, once I get this straightened out I plan to connect my wife's Win95 machine to the net. Is there a doc somewhere that will lead me through this?
