First thing to look at

	netstat -n

should show you a line:

tcp  31   none       Listen       25         0          ::

If it doesn't, you're not listening for telnet calls.
It that's true

1) make sure there is an /rc/bin/service/tcp25

and

2) make sure you're running 'aux/listen tcp'

When I log on to my ISP and run...

	'telnet tcp!<my ip address>!25'

I am getting the following back:

	telnet: connection timed out(...)

Can anyone explain why this is happening
and a way to get around it?

Just for background:

I ran 'rc -x /rc/bin/service/tcp25' and
that seems OK.
Also, I have no ethernet card and have a
standalone system.
