Anyone else having problems with talk? I don't think it even worked in 2.1.0R. I get: [Couldn't bind to control socket : Can't assign requested address (49)] immediately after starting it. Talk tries to specify an address when it binds it's sockets, instead of INADDR_ANY, and the kernel doesn't like it. I got around it by changing the addresses to INADDR_ANY in ctl.c, but then it just gets stuck in a long "Checking for invitation on caller's machine" loop... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dan Walters djw@mail.utexas.edu ----------------------------------------------------------------------
