Hey,

	I'm having trouble establishing an ytalk -- or talk, for that matter -- connection with liii.com.  My machine (castle.mit.edu) is running linux.
	When I try to establish a talk connection with someone@liii.com, I invariably receive this message:

                       #################################
                       #          Ytalk Error          #
                       #                               #
                       #  find_daemon: recv() failed   #
                       #      Connection refused       #
                       #                               #
                       #     sendit: recv() failed     #
                       #      Connection refused       #
                       #                               #
                       #     sendit: recv() failed     #
                       #      Connection refused       #
                       #                               #
                       #     sendit: recv() failed     #
                       #      Connection refused       #
                       #################################

If I try talk, it simply says "connection refused".
	Both ytalk -- in the sipb locker -- and talk work on Athena machines.  I wonder why there is no ytalk in sipb/linuxbin...
	One thing i know for sure is that liii.com does not have ntalk (udp/518) in its /etc/services; I do.  It seems to me that both talk and ytalk should be able to connect on udp/517, but I don't know what else could be wrong...
