Operating Systems Solaris "Connection closed by foreign host error" in Solaris 10 Post 302728043 by rbatte1 on Wednesday 7th of November 2012 09:22:19 AM

So first of all:-
  • Why are you targeting port 15001? Port 15001 is not a standard port number that I am aware of. I presume you have some reason for it.
  • Is the port in /etc/services? Could you post the output from grep 15001 /etc/services
  • Is the service in /etc/inetd.conf? Using the name returned above (e.g. my-svc tcp/15001) could you post the output from grep my-svc /etc/inetd.conf
  • Is the server listening? On the target server, could you run netstat -na|grep 15001 and post the response. If you have lsof installed, could you post the output from lsof -i tcp:15001
  • Is the listener logging an error, if you know where it would?

From your telnet attempt, it would suggest that the server is listening, but doesn't respond to telnet, and why should it. It is presumably a different service.

What more can you tell us?
