is the IP in question in /etc/hosts.deny ??? does it do it with all IP's or just specific IP's..
Do you have portsentry running and setup to add deny hosts to host.deny?? I had similiar problems once, and that turned out to be the problem, for some reason, portsentry started adding all ip's that connected to hosts.deny and I didn't notice for a while so in trying to find the problem I wasted many an hour. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Weaver Sent: Friday, 7 December 2001 7:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] need help with xinetd Hi list, For the past few days I've been getting some unexpected behavior from xinetd in that it won't allow pop3 connections. the log entry i'm getting is this: darcmatter xinetd[6617]: libwrap refused connection to pop3 from [ip number has been snipped] this is a first for this to happen for me and i've not got a clue as to what is going on. I'm using Postfix on a Mandrake 8.1 installation. I can use the machine just fine as an SMTP. It will accept and deliver mail from other machines, but i won't allow connection and collection of any incoming mail. what is it trying to tell me? thanks -- daRcmaTTeR =/\=??? |%C++ "Beware of little sins.
