Previously I posted a pop problem...
something about pop not working  cause I couldn't telnet to port 110.
Well, I downloaded a port scanner... and port 110 is alive!

The problem really is that when at my server, if I do 
"telnet jeeves(servername)" it finds the right ip address
but it just hangs there... I get no prompt.

Does anyone know why the server can't telnet to itself?

if I telnet localhost, it works fine, and it also works if I telnet to it
from anywhere else besides itself.

here is my routing table and my ifconfig

151.198.231.29 is the real ip address, all others are aliases..

thanx for the help
