ease excuse this newbie's ignorance but I have RTM and I still can't get 
my two Redhat 7.3 boxes to talk to eachother. I can ping from one to the 
other but everything else is refused. Nmap shows just a few ports open.

Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA31 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
 Interesting ports on stimpy (192.168.39.1):
