    I guess AIX 4.3.3 (it then went to 5.x) Do a netstat -rn and check for a default route.
    You can probably telnet in on the local LAN because the ethernet interface is on the same network. However when you try it from the internet, unless the default route is correct, then it wont know how to route packets back to you.
