Well I disabled my eth0 interface and still no port 25 or 110 access. I may try to fall back to an older hsf driver with the 2.4.25 kernel. If that fails back to 2.4.19 from the mdk 9.0 install. hrmm.... Scott

Hi all, I have searched thru several googled sites and groups to figure this one out. I have a compaq presario 2710 with a Conexant HSF winmodem. I have it working with the 5.xx beta drivers for access to website on port 80. I cannot get it to connect and download my email or upload my email via pop(110) or smtp(25). I am running a custom 2.4.25 kernel on top of a mandrake 9.2 upgrade from 9.0. I have disabled ECN to no avail and have the firewall disabled too. My netstat -an shows the connection in SYN_SENT state and it goes no further. I have tested by telneting to port 25 and 110 manually. I can load most web pages and can telnet to port 80 manually. Tnx, Scott
