Well, in our last episode, our heroes were trying to figure out why "Talk" and "syslog" kept failing with "Protocol not supported". Guy Harris hit it right on the head: Somehow our uipc_domain.o did not have "inetdomain" as an undefined. Therefore the actual kernel was out of sync with the config file. Removing uipc_domain and re-"make"ing solved the problem. An additional problem was that we did not have "localhost" in our /etc/hosts file, but fixing that was not sufficeint to solve the problem. (Suggested by Naim Abdullah <ihnp4!nucsrl!naim>). Many thanks to all who responded, Tom Perrine
