Broc, I think you are right. This is what I'm seeing: % netstat -an | more Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 :::110 :::* LISTEN
I'm not sure how to interpret this. I'm guessing the POP server is not properly bound. Do I just uncomment the <bind> </bind> block and add the ip address of the server? The docs say that if the parameter is omitted, the service will be bound to all network interfaces on the machine. Is this broken under Fedora (FC2) or has the behavior changed? I tried binding it to the address the server with: <bind>192.168.1.50</bind> but it still doesn't quite seem to work. Netstat shows: tcp 0 0 ::ffff:192.168.1.50:110 :::* LISTEN In this case, I can connect from a remote system but the server doesn't spit out the banner. Also on the local machine, I can no longer telnet to "localhost 110", I have to use the specific ip address. Can you provide anymore pointers that might get me going?
