Topic: leafnode issue on sme 7.3

[louhaven]

Greetings,

I dont believe this is a bug hence why I am posting this here.

I'm running sme 7.3 with all the updates. Recently I installed leafnode as per the instructions here..:

Code: [Select]

http://wiki.contribs.org/Leafnode
I checked and rechecked all the commands. At the time a

Code: [Select]

telnet localhost 119
worked okay.

Now, some time later, it bombs out like this..:

Code: [Select]

[root@dugong ~]# telnet localhost 119
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
200 Leafnode NNTP Daemon, version 1.11.6 running at localhost (my fqdn: dugong.xxxxxxx.xxx.xxx)
Connection closed by foreign host.

I looked in the nntp log file and found the following..:

Code: [Select]

2008-11-21 17:56:51.387382500 tcpsvd: info: status 0/40

I can post the full log file if required.

What's a 'malloc' and how do I fix the problem. Leafnode is also refusing connections from machine on the local network, as well as localhost.

Any help would be really appreciated.
