I changed the xinet.d file to portmap even though it said rpc.portmap because there wasn't one located anywhere within this box. I then ran the two 'test' cases and installed the portmap and xinetd. but when I tried to telnet in from outside my machine, this is the response I received: telnet greyghost.gt.ed.net Trying 128.61.40.17... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused thanks for the help, we'll get it soon enough :) Rob -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
