Mandrake 7.2 on the secure install denies access to the inet services.  You
need to edit the hosts.deny file in the /etc directory to enable access.

I recently upgraded my linux box to Mandrake 7.2.  I can't seem to get ftp
or
telnet access setup for any user.

The 7.1 version had it mostly setup out of the box so to speak.

#
# simple configuration file for xinetd
#
# Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/

     instances      =    60
     log_type       =    SYSLOG authpriv
     log_on_success =    HOST PID
     log_on_failure      =    HOST RECORD
}

{
service ftp
     flags               =    REUSE NAMEINARGS
     socket_type         =    stream
     protocol       =    tcp
     wait           =    no
     user           =    root roberwi2
     server              =    /usr/libexec/ftpd
     server_args         =    ftpd -1
     only_from      =    169.205.134.0
}

{
service telnet
     flags               =    REUSE NAMEINARGS
     socket_type         =    tcp
     protocol       =    tcp
     wait           =    no
     user           =    root roberwi2
     server              =    /usr/libexec/telnetd
     server_args         =    telnetd
     only_from      =    169.205.134.0
