that doesn't seem to be the case. I can telnet to port 21 on
daylightfading.org just fine. It refuses me because i've closed off the
telnet port, (i use ssh), but it still connects just fine. Its only port 25
that says there's no route to host. I will definately email my net admin,
but if you have any idea why it would connect fine to port 21, and not 25,
let me know. (yes, smtp is listed as 25/tcp in /etc/services!)
Thanks for helping me investigate this matter,
Eric
