is there a firewall that's active by default on that system?
if it's running a Linux 2.4.x kernel try this:

# display current firewall rules
iptables -L -n

# to disable the firewall completely
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT

You'll have to look at yellodog's documentation for the proper way to
disable the firewall, assuming that's the problem.
