I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I config my /etc/network/interfaces like this:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.5.201
gateway 192.168.5.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

This is my ip addr result:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:0c:29:d2:39:2e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.5.201/24 brd 192.168.5.255 scope global eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fed2:392e/64 scope link 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

This is my ifconfig result:

I can connect to Internet correctly. I can telnet to my localhost

telnet localhost 9000

But somehow, I cannot telnet to myself using the LAN IP:

telnet 192.168.5.201 9000

telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

My IPTABLES has no rule. Why this happen, and (OR) how can I fix it?

It is probably only listening on localhost. Run sudo netstat -tulpn|grep ':9000'. If the line that comes up says something like 127.0.0.1:9000 then that means I'm correct, in which case you need to modify some sort of a bind-address or listen-address parameter.
