Hi James, Somebody is sending Horus a reset packet (and it shouldn't be us). Would you please send us the result of trying the telnet(1) command but to different LDM-s: telnet idd.tamu.edu 388 and telnet iddb.unidata.ucar.edu 388 > This is what happens if I type out the telnet command: > > [ldm@horus ~]$ telnet idd.unidata.ucar.edu 388 > Trying 128.117.140.3... > Connected to idd.unidata.ucar.edu. > Escape character is '^]'. > ????Connection closed by foreign host. > > I get some odd looking characters showing up before "Connection closed > by foreign host". It tries the connection but immediately closes.
