I installed a service with open tcp ports. When the machine boots the service starts after the network is configured but I cannot connect to the ports. When I run this services from root it all works fine and can connect to the ports. Any ideas?
My stock answer these days to any sort of problem liek this is to test it using network rather than Network Manager.
AS root:
# chkconfig NetworkManager off # chkconfig network on
Reboot. If it now works and you don't need wireless, you have fixed it. If you need wireless log another NetworkManger defect use cas it cannot be used before you log in.e.

Or to me more specific, if you are using NM the connection to the network does not occur until you login. So you cannot use it until you login. -- ======================================================================= The Heineken Uncertainty Principle: You can never be sure how many beers you had last night. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@sbcglobal.net
