On FreeBSD V2.01, the daemon ntalkd is standard and I am trying to talk to an AIX V3.1.3 box with their version of ntalkd. The session hangs at "checking for invitation on callers machine", the same problem exists with another machine that also runs ntalkd. Yet the AIX box talks to any other box with ntalkd. Has anyone encountered the same problem? -Feisal -- Feisal Mohammed <feisal@tstt.net.tt> Ph: 1-809-662-2002 x3171 Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, University of the West Indies.
