I have the following problem using telnet while try to access a certain Solaris 8 Unix machine at work.

I want to access 128.1.11.1 , but my office is in the process of moving, and this curtial machine has yet to be moved to our new office. Thus, I access remotely via telnet.

My original IP was 128.1.11.234. I am now in 128.1.17.* network range.

Sucessful Access Patterns:

1) pre-move environment
128.1.11.234 -> 128.1.11.1

2) post-move
128.1.17.93 -> 128.1.203.7 -> 128.1.11.1

Unsuccessful Access Pattern:
128.1.17.93 -> 128.1.11.1

What is it that is keeping me from going directly from the 128.1.17.93 to 128.1.11.1? Why am I able to access through 128.1.203.7 ?

Do I need to change/added sometime to /etc/inetd.conf ?

Any suggestions here would be helpful.
