[EMAIL PROTECTED] michael]# telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80
Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx...
telnet: connect to address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
If nothing is listening, you can't telnet to it
I assume someone told you to do that becoz you got the "Address already
in use" error message, and they wanted to verify that something was
"stealing" that IP/port combination ?
My question is
How do you bind Ip address to a host?
if by "bind" you mean configure, it seems you've done that already
make sure your IP address is in your /etc/hosts for your hostname and
that your 'hosts' entry in your etc/nsswitch.conf has 'files' before 'dns'
