As soon as it needs to open the data connection, I get a complaint from the 386bsd end that it can't assign the port for the data stream. Anyone else seen this? Any ideas what's wrong? I'm running 386bsd 0.1 w/ patchkit 0.2.2. The net stuff is going over a ppp link, if it matters. Please respond via email, if there's interest I'll summarize. Thanks, Dave Cottingham dc@cobi.gsfc.nasa.gov
