I have it setup to run on port 10026, small service to read my logfile, I need to be able to read it from another server. I setup the inetd service in /etc/inetd.conf, is there a way to bind it to a certain IP? I'd like to bind it to my private IP address. However, the firewall in place does not allow access via that port. Any advise? -- Robert
