Help! I am trying to get talk to work on my Amiga running NetBSD 1.0...

I always get "[Couldn't bind to control socket : 
              Can't assign requested address (49)]" on the top line,
then it quits...

I fixed this somehow on mine many moons ago, but I can't remember how...
(but I quite definitively remember having it work!)
It probably involved waving a chicken foot around a bit, but in what
direction?

Any ideas?
