Re: [Plug] ran out of man sources on rdate...


On my linux box, time is an internal part of inetd -- once I enable
time in /etc/inetd.conf, I can rdate to localhost.  Is there something
preventing you from tetting to the time port [37] on the other box?

like a firewall blocking the port?  ip masquaerading? tcpd restricting 
access via hosts.allow/deny?  some other restriction issue?
