Hi I have a problem with Reverse Telnet hanging on a 2600.
console#telnet 172.25.18.105 2033
Trying 172.25.18.105, 2033 ... Open
<just hangs !!!> even though cable 1-5 are plugged into cisco device console ports.
Config of cisco 2600 - Version 12.2(8)T5.....
interface FastEthernet0/0
ip address 172.25.18.105 255.255.255.192
no ip mroute-cache
speed 100
full-duplex
!
ip classless
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.25.18.65
!
line 33 47
exec-timeout 0 0
no exec
transport input telnet
escape-character BREAK
Any ideas.
Thanks

I do not see any serious issues with the config (although when you configure no exec there is no reason to have exec-timeout 0 0 configured). When I configure a router as a terminal server I usually configure transport output none, but I do not think this difference would cause your symptoms.
Can you verify the connections? Your example uses the first line (line 33) what is it connected to? If you connect a PC to the console port of that device do you get connected? What kind of cable are you using to connect the 2600 to the device?

Rick, thanks for your suggestions. I've just realised that it was a simple solution, a case of looking too deeply. I have a 16 port card and a single 8 way Async cable which I mistakingly had connected to the upper (line 41-48) connector bank!
Thanks
Mick
