[LI] POP3 and telnet

["WebMaster: prayagonline.com" <prayag@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi ,
        I have got a new problem with my red hat 6 linux server ...
I have setup my server as a dial in server, where people log into and
establish ppp connection from their windows machine ...
Now after i have connected, when i type 192.168.5.3 (that's the ip address
of my server.) on my browser, i get the correct
It worked page very quickly.
though when i use telnet 192.168.5.3 it is taking hours to display the
prompt ....
also when i check my mail with my pop3 client (outlook) it waits at the
connecting and authorising stage for a very very long time.
( i removed the # sign before pop3 in /etc/inetd.conf file)

It used to work very correctly before, but i don't know whats gone wrong.
Please help.
Thanks a lot.
