Either a firewall in a router sitting between the hosts, or an ipfw setup sitting on one or the other host. :notice the icmp port unreachable msgs, yet on hostB: : :netstat -a : :.. :udp 0 0 hostB.1018 hostA.nfsd :... :Thanks, :Cillian This is meaningless. Since UDP is connectionless this is simply a placemark for what the machine wants to do, not for what it is able to do. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
