I am running linux, and when I want to telnet from my other linux machine I get telnetd: all network ports in use This is typicall from Unix style error messages: they are just like Window's 95 disabled buttons: you know that something went wrong, but you have not the slightlest clue as to what and why, and the software doesn't give you any remote hint as to where you can start looking. Ftp works, so is not the network card, or the hardware. Is some dammed config file in /etc. But strangely in a wholly different environment and OS, the same meaningless message is issued, for wholly different reasons. -- Jacob Navia Logiciels/Informatique 41 rue Maurice Ravel Tel 01 48.23.51.44 93430 Villetaneuse Fax 01 48.23.95.39 France - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
