Re: Upgrade and portmap problems



What are your firewall rules set at?
What do /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny look like?
Is ps aux showing that portmap is running?
Does /var/log/syslog have anything to say about failures to run daemons?
Does /etc/resolv.conf point to static nameservers or are you dialing in 
with ppp and friends?
Is this computer the DNS?
