Last nite I dld leafnode as a local news server, configured compiled nicely.I followed the install and readme to the letter everything seemed fine... Now when I fetchmail from my user account I get an error "SMTP connect to Serina.dizzy73 failed: Connection refused" "Fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from connix.com" It will show messages on the server but refuse to fetch them Ive went thru rc.config /etc/hosts /etc/resolv.conf and everything looks fine I dont understand it! I establish a internet connection ping and can http to anywhere. I can also sendmail out no problem. My mail address looks like dizzy73@dizzy73@connix.com I've looked at all the files and cant seem to find where the error is...? Any ideas? Also, leafnodes fetch is "unable to open lockfile: No such file or d$" and it ends with a "connection refused" Any help to get me going with this would be appreciated thanks rob -- Linux Home page <A HREF="http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm"><A HREF="http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm</A">http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm</A</A>> -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
