Original question:

> A production system.
>
> Currently 61 people logged in via telnet, however no new telnet
> connections are getting in. Instead, they get:
>
> telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
>
> Can telnet out, but cannot telnet in. Can ping the machine ok.
>
> Also cannot ftp into the machine either; it just hangs.
>
> Any ideas welcome. Thanks.
