- Hello, I grabbed ntalk from iowa and installed it on my 827/8.05 and all was
- cool. Worked like a champ, UNTIL, the callee set mesg n.
-
- It looks like inetd starts ntalkd.
-
- ntalkd immediatly forks itself.
-
- Since the callee has mesg n, the child eventually times out, while the
- parrent persist.
-
- Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the caller puts in another request to ring the
- callee. Inetd spawns another ntalkd and the above scenario repeats itself.
-
- This goes on until I get a call at home that the sys has gone comotose.
-
- Does anyone have any suggestions, besides stop answering the phone.
-
- TIA,
- Bill
