Hello all,
I have added a new firewall rule to open the port using the below command, and it seems its not working. can anyone suggest me.
iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 9997 -j ACCEPT
Code: telnet 198.168.11.24 9997
Trying 198.168.11.24...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
