After waking my system up from sleep mode, telnet on the local host doesn't work for a minute or two. Here's a typical attempt, which was run about a minute after waking the system up: $ telnet localhost 25 Trying ::1... telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused After a minute or two sendmail works fine. This is no biggie, the only bad consequence is that fetchmail won't fetch anything for a minute or two; but it would be nice to know what's going on.
Since this is after waking up from sleep mode, the odds are that the network manager stuff is still starting up...especially if this is a wireless connection. NetworkManager generally closes the firewall down, brings the network up (and if it's a wireless, that includes authenticating, et al) and then starts the firewall. While the firewall is set to not accept connections, trying even localhost won't work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Time: Nature's way of keeping everything from happening at once. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
