That localnet is an oddity. I've never seen that in netstat output. Have you got your hostname etc configured. Can you try grep localnet /etc/* grep localnet /etc/*/* grep localnet /etc/*/*/* as root (so use sudo [eg sudo grep localnet /etc/*] or su to avoid permission errors) or and we'll find out where that is set. ...Peter -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users">http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users </a> </blockquote></div>
