Where are you running nmap and where are you trying to access home from? If trying to access your home computer from a corportate network, you may find many ports are blocked. Some cable companies also block some ports. Without further info, it's hard to say where the problem lies. As for Redhat, if a service is available locally, it has to be available remotely, unless something in between is blocking access. As I mentioned, that could be a firewall, at either end or be blocked by the cable company. What's between that RH box and your ISP? Have you tried using different port numbers? Are you trying from work? Can you access other systems?
