Hello. I was trying to get talk working in my cygwin install using xinetd. I finally figured out why it wasn't working.
on cygwin, the talk command tries to connect to the ntalk port, not the talk port, as far as I can tell. (could just be my machine, tho.) so, there should be a section in /etc/xinetd.d/talk for service ntalk. seems to work ok for me after adding a section for ntalk. Was this overlooked?
