G98/Linux 7



Dear Linux users,
 I have compiled G98 Rev. A7 with Linux Redhat 6.0. Now I upgraded to
 Redhat 7.1 and copied the executables from the old system to the new one.
 It runs fine. I am wondering whether the performance would be better, if I
 recompiled the code. Do I waste computer time? Are there any other
 problems with this procedure?
 Apart from that, I have problems configuring Redhat 7.1 for using telnet
 and ftp. I can telnet and ftp from the machine but not into it. The error
 is always: connection refused. With the /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny
 files, I was not successful. Does anyone no what I have to change? (I
 have installed the server package.)
 I know that the main problem is my lack of experience. For this reason I
 purchased Redhat 7.1 Deluxe Edition in the hope that there will be good
 documentation, but there is not very much beyond the stuff I knew already.
 In our bookstore, I found Redhat Linux Unleashed. It looks great to me.
 Unfortunately, it is Redhat 6. Is there a new addition of this book or is
 something coming out soon? Would Redhat 6 still be useful or are there too
 many changes, especially in configuring security?
 Thanks in advance for suggestions.
