Victor,
Well for now, I am just trying to get my web users working. I may expand to allow other clients such as Eudora, Outlook to work later. But I can't even get local connections to work. So I don't think its a host.allow issue. I actually have no idea what "busy" means. Its peculiar, but I think its a Fedora compatibility issue that is somehow being over looked.

Tim, are your users only connneecting through webmail? The way I
understood you, they where able to connect by webmail and not pops,
hence the problem you where asking aboout. If I read you wronng, I am
sorry.

Uhhmm...yes, this could also be the problem I had not thought about.
