Bill,
Put a *:listdb in your gnatsd.host_access file. Then telnet to your
gnats machine on port 1529 (default). If you get a gnats response, then
Lars is correct that the host was being denied access before. You can then
tweak the gnatsd.host_access file to only allow access to the localhost or
whatever.
If that doesn't fix the problem, I would recommend checking your xinetd
config (assuming you are using that). Make sure you have something like
this in your /etc/xinetd.d/ dir:
service support
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = gnats
server = /usr/local/libexec/gnats/gnatsd
server_args = gnatsd
}
and reload xinetd.
If it helps, here's my gnastd.access
mike:$0$mike:edit:default,af,mb
dave:$0$dave:edit:default,af,mb
andrea:$0$andrea:edit:default,af,mb
and gnatsd.host_access
127.0.0.1:listdb:
from a working installation. As a note, when testing this, I recommend
just telnetting to 1529. There's fewer variables (perl, apache, etc) that
will get in the way.
