Hi all, I'm out of town. Now when I try to telnet to my machine , it says " connection refused.. server not accepting any connections " Ftp, e-mail also gives me the same error. No one logged in while i was gone. When taken for a reboot it works fine. Could this be a hacker attack ? I'm running Slackware . -kalyan ************ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxchix.org
