Search your server for a file called inetd.sec

find / -name inetd.sec -print

if you do find it back it up first before making any changes. You can edit this file on the fly there is no need for reboot or restarting any processes.

The other possibility is that the host trying to connect to the server does not have a route. to check you can do a netstat -rn

good luck
