Re: gdnc doesn't want to run

[GDB]

This is what I get:

# gdnc -f:

"unable to get name of current host using 'localhost'"
"unable to register with name server as GDNCServer - quiting"

# gdomap -N:

"gethostbyname() failed: Connection refused"

# gdomap:

"unable to bind address to TCP socket. Perhaps gdomap is already running."

gdomap is not running. gdnc is not running. I don't have an ethernet card.
Do I need one? inetd is running.
