Do you have the "portmap" service installed and running?  Do a

  ps axuw | grep portmap

If you do not see it running then start it

/etc/init.d/portmap start.

Also if you are using IPTABLES then make sure you add a rule in hosts.allow
for All:  All and leave hosts.deny blank.  This will allow you to open up
tcpwrappers but restrict with IPTABLES.

Hope this helps.

We use our own iptables scripts, and our NW server has full access. Even
stopping iptables does not change anything. :-(
