John, Don't even bother checking your IP addresses. If you can ping and rlogin from your PC then your addresses are good. Also, you said you've added two lines to your services file, but you don't say which file. There are two, one on the PC and one on your sun box. Both should have matching entries and matching numbers. Also, it's good insurance to make sure there is a carriage return at the end of each line. (There used to be a bug out there) (My bet is you still have problems on the PC's services file...) --Craig (craig@chemistry.utah.edu) > > I have added two lines to my SERVICES file (we are running FTP > software).
