Doesnt work.
I do a talk to a local user (say, myself) and i get:
[Target machine does not recognize us]
and it comes out.
I do a talk to a remote machine and i get
[Checking of invitation on Caller's machine]
and it stays there till i interrupt it.

So i use ytalk (perhaps the problem is with talk itself, this happend
on my sunos 4.1.1) and i get:
No talk daemon on 158.144.9.31 (my machine)
The talk daemon is definitely running as a ps shows.

strange behavior or setup problem?
