Telnet/ftp problems SBS2000



help!!!

I support a number of small SBS systems but I have one with a problem that I
just can't resolve. I cannot telnet or ftp from the clients even though the
firewall client is running. I've tried this from one of the other SBS
systems and I know it should all work. This is what you see happen in the
command window:

Ping works, tracert works.
ftp to outside appears to connect and then immediately you get a message
saying the remote server disconnected you
telnet to an smtp server on port 25 and this happens:
the screen is cleared and then a message to press any key to continue....
If you do you get an underline character at the beginning of the under the p
of press.
If you press a key again you get connection to host lost....

I have re-run the Internet Connection Wizard to make sure everything is
standard but it makes no difference.
