telnetd does not block the network however you must have a gateway set so
it can find the return path.
in simple terms- the TS will receive a request from a remote IP if it does not find the IP
on its local network it will sent it to the gateway. The gateway normally is a router that will forward it
back to the remote host. If you type "route" you should see something like this:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
which says if the request is from 192.168.1.XXX return it locally else send it to
192.168.1.254 which is my router to the world.
you can find the gateway and dns from any machine on the same network with
ipconfig for windows and /sbin/ifconfig for linux. route works on both.
Program that info in the TS board and you should be good to go.
Hope that helps.

telnetd is listening on port 23
what I want to know is does telnetd block connections from a different network ?

Ok, do you have any aplication *listening* on the 23 port?
If not, you can use the tcputils utilities (tcplisten in this case)

I am using openvpn
I want all my "real" computers to be on 172.16.73.0/24, and all my
7250's to be on 172.16.72.0/ 24
wierdly enough I can't connect to port 23 from the real computers to
the 7250 ??
But I can connect to other ports, so the network is fine.
Anyone ?
