Sorry to intrude but I can't get a nibble on my post "ftp connection refused". Just so happens I found the above "gravity" line in my hosts file after doing an emerge of ftp. But ftp will not communicate across a crossover, pc-to-pc, LAN, even though the two NICs can ping each other and iftraf indicates a flurry of activity for about 1/2 a second at the start of an ftp session on the host pc. FWIW, I found that particular line added automagically to the /etc/hosts file on a fresh install using the 2.6.15 kernel after doing emerge ftp IIRC but not on the other machine's hosts file. The other pc uses the 2.6.12 kernel but the ftp client is identical for both. So I just added the line manually to the /hosts file on that one. So both PCs have that line in their /hosts file now. So I oughta be able to ftp gravity from one or the other and get connected, right? But it doesn't work :^( Does ftp work for you? What am I missing? -Maxim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
