Hi, Ik tried to enable my tcpd to allow 'talk' to my system from ALL, but can't get it to work. These are my /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow:
# /etc/hosts.deny: list of hosts that are _not_ allowed to access the system. # See hosts_access(5) and /usr/doc/net/portmapper.txt # # Example: ALL: some.host.name, .some.domain # ALL EXCEPT in.fingerd: other.host.name, .other.domain # # The PARANOID wildcard matches any host whose name does not match its # address. ALL: ALL # /etc/hosts.allow: list of hosts that are allowed to access the system. See # hosts_access(5) and /usr/doc/net/portmapper.txt # # Example: ALL: LOCAL @some_netgroup # ALL: .foobar.edu EXCEPT terminalserver.foobar.edu # ALL: 192.168.1.2 ALL: 192.168.1.1 ALL: 127.0.0.1 wu-ftpd: ALL in.ntalkd: ALL in.talkd: ALL talkd: ALL 192.168.1.1 is me (I'm a 'masquerading-server', so this is actually not the address you see from the outside world). Leaving out 'in.ntalkd: ALL' gives me 'Sep 6 12:48:03 taylor in.ntalkd[647]: refused connect from 192.168.1.2' messages from syslog. Enabling it again gives me 'Sep 6 12:48:27 taylor talkd[649]: recv: Connection refused'. And I keep getting this last message, even if I put 'in.talkd: ALL' and 'talkd: ALL' in hosts.allow. This is with netstd 2.12-1 Anybody got a clue?
