Hi all, Can anybody explain what happening with the following 3 log entries. I've got lots of similar entries over the last few weeks. I've obviously replaced the first 2 octets of the actual IP addresses. Mar 8 16:16:05 server portmap[30074]: connect from 10.0.5.27 to callit(ypserv): request from unauthorized host Mar 8 16:16:09 server named[14490]:ns_req:sendto([10.0.24.147].1024): Network is unreachable Mar 8 16:16:09 server portmap[30076]: connect from 10.0.5.27 to callit(ypserv): request from unauthorized host The first and third entries are requests to contact our ypserver and are denied, but this suggests the network is up and running. The second entry says the network is unreachable. All other indications show the net as functioning. The system is Redhat-6.1 with updates including bind-devel-8.2.2_P5-1 bind-utils-8.2.2_P5-1 bind-8.2.2_P5-1 It doesn't seem to cause any problems but I'm just curious. Any ideas.
