Hello questions, I am wondering why syslog shows me such messages.. /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:113 from 127.0.0.1:1376 for example. log_in_vain is enabled, but why should connections on the loopback interface be blocked? This is also beyond the ipfilter firewalling rules/level, which do/does allow any kind of traffic on the loop- back if/localhost. I noticed this when I used mpg123 to play mp3s, which always worked well (I cron'ed it to wake me up in the morning for example), but some weeks ago or so it stopped and I don't know why this could be. Anyone have an idea? -- Andreas Ntaflos, ANT ntaflos.andreas@gmx.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
