Speaking of talk has anyone else noticed anything strange with ntalkd? Every now and then whenever I attempt to talk or ytalk to other users on my 2.2.2 system I get; [No connection yet] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Connection closing. Exiting] But if I kill ntalkd the connection is established, or sometimes it work like "talk patman@192.168.1.1" instead of "talk pamtan". Is there an updated version of ntalkd?
