Oracle Database Discussions

I have installed 10g DB server on Linux 3. The DB is running properly. However when I do a TNSPING/Telnet from a windows client I am unable to connect. I can ping the server from the client and vice versa.
The following are the results:

--------------------
sqlnet.ora file on the client:

# sqlnet.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\db\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)

tnsnames.ora file on the client:

)
-----------------------
LISTENER is running on the server.

Telnet result - Fail

On Telneting to see if the port is open I get:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>telnet infr2.localdomain.com 1521
Connecting To infr2.localdomain.com...Could not open connection to the host, on port 1521: Connect failed

-----------------------------
I have flushed the rules from the iptables. There are no rules set right now, but still getting failure.

The TNSPING and TELNET is not getting through any ideas. Seems like that the port 1521 is blocked. How do I open it.?

Thanks.
