G'Day Adam, I have been playing with DGD for some 12 months now, and in the last 2 weeks have managed to compile it on a spare machine along with lpmud 2.4.5 The last time I compiled this I crashed my server and dumped the users. So I had to wait till I could afford to build a second that I can crash without i affecting others. Now my problem is, and please excuse me for being THICK, how do I get FreeBSD to allow connections to the mud? I am running FreeBSD 2.2.1 on an Intel 486SX33 with 8M connected to my main machine via ethernet. Situation: compiled DGD & lpmud from the ports/net/dgd & ports/net/dgd-lpmud I have run ./runlpmud -& from /usr/local/dgd and I note that a couple of processes have started, hname 6047 & driver -lpmud.dgd Connecting: When I try to telnet to the mud (zurix.apana.org.au = 202.12.89.126) on the port specified in the lpmud.dgd config file 2000 the system refuses the connection. Ok so maybe I am using the wrong tool to connect to the mud? So I compiled and tested the tinyfague mud client and that worked ok on the Albion mud. Doesn't work with zurix :( Attempts to fix: So I thought it maybe in the services config file in /etc so I added an entry for dgd; dgd 2000/tcp #lpmud dgd 2000/udp #lpmud and did a Kill -1 1 but this has not changed anything :( Request: Could you point me in the right direction to kick this thing, & get it going. Best regards, Mike (Ratty) -------
