Networking in Fedora. I get "Connection refused" no matter what Ido.

Hi There

I have been using linux for quite many years, and grown to like it. But
I am quite new in networking.

I am trying to set up a small LAN with 3 Fedora Core 1 based computers,
where one is intended to be a gateway to a larger ethernet based net,
that gives me internet acces. I guess I have the hardware installed
correct, at least I can ping all the machines from all machines.

But it ends there, whenever I try to telnet or rlogin any of the
machines I get "Connection refused". I have tried to disable firewall on
all PCs using redhat-config-secureritylevel but that didn't change anything.

Can anyone tell me what files to edit in order to make the right
configuration. And are there any tools that can help me in the process?

Thanx

Troels

Working as designed. You do not want to pass login/passwords as clear text.
Verify sshd is enabled on other_box 3n or/and 5n with
chkconfig --list | grep sshd
then login with
ssh -X -l user_id (not root) other_box

Thank you very much.
