Ok, so there is obviously something that I am not understanding. I have tried everything I could think of, but I still can't talk or write. Let me explain what I have done, then maybe someone out there can tell me how they would set it all up.

1. Red Hat 7.3 installed as a server on one computer.
2. Red Hat 7.3 installed as a workstation on another computer.
3. Both running xinetd, ssh, and talkd.
4. IP addresses assigned via DHCP from an NT Server.
5. Also running SMB, NFS, and Apache.

Do I have to do something special on the server computer to accept logins from the workstation?

If someone could describe a theoretical setup I would be extremely grateful.
