Hello All, I've imstalled the NNTPD from the 2.0.5 packages and can not get it to work properly. When it installed it put things to /usr/local/libexec. This looked differed from the designated directories in the man page so I ln -s 'd everything to the designated directories. I chown'd everything to news.news. I created a nntp_access file in /usr/lib/news that looks like this: default read post I set up inetd.conf and restarted everyting. I can not telnet to port 119. The connection is refused. When I run nntpd locally it returns the following: 201 bsd1 NNTP[auth] server version 1.5.11t5 (9 October 1993) ready at Thu Oct 26 03:19:28 1995 (no posting). It is not getting the permissions from nntp_access, but I do not know why.... HELP PLEASE! John
