Remote access for students »
Computer systems maintained by the both the UCI Network and Academic Computing Services and ICS computing support accept connections only from systems which have ther names correctly registered in Domain Name System (DNS). See NACS's Limitation of Services to non-registered hosts for more details on this policy.For security reasons, ICS systems always reject connections from remote hosts which do not have matching forward and reverse DNS entries. If you are having trouble telnet'ing or ftp'ing to an ICS system while away from UCI this may be the cause of the problem.
