Anybody know the source of this error: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused I have ypserv and ypbind running as daemons. ypcat works OK. I don't think it's ipchains-related, as I can have input/output chains wide open and still get the same error. Thanks! --Brian -- http://www.nerdperfect.com Smart as a chimp.
