[TriLUG] Gnome port security app?

[Mike Mueller]

I was working with some folks today getting ssh access through a couple of 
machines.  One machine was giving "connection refused" on ssh and telnet (I'm 
working on them to deactivate it).  Then the owner did something with a Gnome 
security app that opened the port and now they both work.  The 
/etc/host.allow and /etc/host.deny are empty.  /etc/xinetd.d has a telnet 
file.

I can't figure out what changed and I've already pressed the owner twice for 
details with no relief.

Can somebody help me solve this mystery?
Thanks
