Message-ID: <gnn.735562449@thecity> Sender: usenet@cs.utwente.nl Nntp-Posting-Host: sacramento.cs.utwente.nl Organization: University of Twente, Dept. of Computer Science Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1993 10:54:09 GMT Lines: 21 Hi Folks, I'm now running NetBSD 0.8 on my Compaq Contura 3/25 laptop with Conner 121M hard disk and 8Megs of memory. It seems to run fine except for one problem. Well, it's sort of a big problem if you ask me. If I try to use rsh, telnet, ftp, or rlogin to the "localhost" address the machine reboots on me. No panic, just a reboot. I'm running the GENERICISA kernel. If I use ping on the machine it works just fine and I can do a netstat -i and find out that yes lo0 is configured. Right now there isn't an ethernet connected to it so I figure things should be working over the local bus just fine. Any ideas on this one? Thanks, George -- Kunst of soep? - Lilly Tomlin
