Help!
The talk(1) command fails in my new NetBSD 1.2
My talkd(8) don't send the ANNOUNCE message
/* (from /usr/include/protocols/talkd.h)
...
* (to speak to the callee specified in the message). If the lookup
* fails, the caller then sends an ANNOUNCE message causing the server
* to broadcast an announcement on the callee's login ports requesting
* contact. When the callee responds, the local server uses the
* recorded invitation to respond with the appropriate rendezvous
* address and the caller and callee client programs establish a
* stream connection through which the conversation takes place.
*/
It just sends the following lines to /var/log/messages
Nov 25 16:17:42 polaris talkd[166]: sendto: Address family not supported by protocol family
Nov 25 16:17:44 polaris talkd[166]: sendto: Address family not supported by protocol family
Nov 25 16:18:57 polaris last message repeated 2 times
My /etc/inetd.conf
ntalk dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/ntalkd ntalkd
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
